#3 | How can Black people dismantle the term ‘regular Black’… and stop using it?
Contrary to popular belief, all Black people are not the same. We are not a monolith. And unfortunately, monolithic thinking goes beyond just what society thinks of Black people. It also shows up in the way the Black people treat one another. How do we challenge our subconscious thinking and celebrate Black people and their glorious differences, perspectives, backgrounds, etc? Do we need to educate our peers, friends, and family more? Do we need to look at how class may play a role? OR do we simply say ‘f@ck it’ and stop fighting the normativity standard and just be ourselves?
Hosted by: VP/ Director of Growth Strategy, Reonna Johnson, featured guests in this episode include:
In addition, Glenn Singleton, author, thought leader, strategist, and creator of Courageous Conversation®, joined the conversation to let us know our responsibility as Black people to dismantle the term - ‘regular Black.’ We also invited Jason King, scholar, professor and Chair of the Clive Davis Institute to share his perspective on breaking through normativity thinking.
