Back in the day, it seemed like folks could disagree on a lot of things, but still find ways to coexist. Things have changed. In today's polarized society, it can feel nearly impossible to find common ground with folks who don't share our views, especially when those folks are the people closest to us. For many families,  political beliefs, racism, gender discrimination, and other hot button topics can cause  personal rifts that can tear a family apart.  In this episode, we discuss how to have healthy disagreements with family members when diverging views on big issues make basic conversations extremely difficult.

This is the first of a series of monologues we have entitled Bits of Truth. The concept is simple.

Mother's Day was just here a few days ago, and we had the honor and pleasure of welcoming our first distinguished guest to the show - Roxanne Lewis, mother of Brandon Lewis to the show.  She's a wonderful, calm and open person, and we had a splendid conversation with her about being a mom, a grandmother, and keeping family close despite great physical distances. Enjoy this very special episode of Dialectic Peoples

In this pod, we discuss integrity the practice of being consistently honest in our actions, trustworthy, and an uncompromising/ firm adherence to strong ethical and moral principles, and values. 
What does this look like when we base our actions on values and principles rather than personal gain and why is looking to major corporations for moral guidance a dangerous thing to do.

In this 12th episode we're starting a brand new series about fatherhood. Kuku and Brandon talk about the role of being a father to their own children and also what being a father in the modern world is all about. This episode is just the beginning, so check it out and stay tuned for more!

In this episode, we try to define and understand the meaning of Representation and  Misrepresentation. We also discuss the lack of Representation, especially within the entertainment industry, and chime in on the debate in Denmark about the Disney/Pixar movie Soul where the main character a POC is voiced by a White Danish actor.

In this Q&A session, we responded to questions from listeners about the episode topic, namely, Representation, and Misrepresentation.  Thank you to all our listeners who submitted questions!

In our first Q&A session, we responded to questions from listeners about the episode topic, namely, the effects of COVID-19 on society. Thank you to all our listeners who submitted questions!

Covid-19 has shut down or imposed restrictions on society and our way of life as we know it.But these same measures taken to save lives may also be endangering lives, and may lead to unforeseen or predicted consequences. 

Inequality is on a rise, there has been an increase in mental health issues, and school closures, leading to an even greater gap between the haves and the have nots.

And last but not least we discuss the short term effects and long term consequences of social distancing both as individuals and society as a whole.

 In this episode we talk about Christmas, how we celebrate it, the positive feelings of connectivity, of sharing and community but also how it has been commercialized, weaponized, and suffers from a severe lack of diversity. 

Has Danish society been too slow to embrace and fully understand the concept of representation and if so what are the consequences of this exclusion on different groups in society?
