Two amazing humans navigate the grey as they try to unpack a listener question. Essentially, somewhere in the question is the wondering if something can make you racist. While this wasn't the full question, it was a part that stood out to us. Nothing can make you racist. Only you can do that work and the antiracist work on the other end. We do our best to dive into this idea that really stuck with us. As usual, it's messy, but it's us.

Two amazing humans navigate the grey as they talk about the feeling of racism. White people cannot and will not ever feel racism, but there can be conscious steps white people take through racial self-talk to seek to understand and consciously leverage discomfort to benefit people, especially black and brown people. It's a good conversation about how to do the work to deal with Racist Uncle Joe.

Two amazing humans navigate the grey as they breakdown the concept of truth. Why are we as a people so afraid of the truth? We can't handle the truth! Finding the truth, speaking about the truth, and acting on the truth are ways in which we can move this country. A significant factor in the truth is our own ability to critically think and reflect.

Two amazing humans navigate the grey as they discuss the dumpster fire that burns around us. We discuss Roe (again), Bruce's Beach (although not so much a dumpster fire), involuntary relocation, outing LGBTQ students, Jayland Walker, and Emmett Till. It's a lot to talk about and a lot of angry invoking thoughts. While we could make an episode out of each of these, we didn't want to wait weeks to do so. So here you have it, one big dumpster fire episode!

Two amazing humans navigate the grey as they discuss the crumble of American Democracy. Just prior to this episode, the Supreme Court struck down Roe v. Wade, turning the power of abortion rights back to the state. We break down what it means in terms of race, our country, and humanity. This isn't an easy one for us.

Two amazing humans navigate the grey as they do what they do best - shit jabber. We came into today's episode without a topic, we just wanted to talk about what came to us. It's a good way to model the conversation, but also just to show a little of who we are. We introduce you to something pretty exciting in our lives, we reflect on our previous episode, and we shit jabber about the world around us.

Two amazing humans navigate the grey as we breakdown the nation's conversations, or lack thereof, around white supremacy culture and racism. Following the events of Buffalo, the nation quickly (and rightfully) shifted to a conversation around gun violence and access. We moved away from the other problem - racism. As a nation, we will sit in any conversation, except for one about racism and white supremacy culture.

Two amazing humans navigate the grey as they discuss Juneteenth. Much of this conversation is centered in some of the recent events of capitalistic appropriation of the holiday - Walmart and Party City. We unpack what some white-owned companies are doing to monopolize on holiday for black people. We also talk about ways to celebrate and learn about Juneteenth.

Two amazing humans navigate the gray as we reflect on part two of the Buffalo shooting, as well as the recent shooting in Uvalde. We discuss the ways in which we move through these events - at the hands of the media, environment, etc.  Honestly, this episode is just a lot of reflection and s*** jabbering.
