In this episode, we explore the essential themes and characteristics of contradictions and paradoxes: Psychological and social distress/disunity, spiritual distress, confusion, manipulation, and incongruence. Drawing from my academic experience within the Master of Social Work program and broader sociohistorical and sociopolitical context of colonialism and oppression, I hope this intimate reflection will help you draw parallels, become inspired, and develop a sense of curiosity.

A quote for deep and intense reflection:
“Black people cannot be equal in a society that is fundamentally unequal.” - Dr. Amos N. Wilson (Rest in Power)
