On this bonus episode, Malik runs through a high-level overview of the core tenets of Critical Race Theory (CRT). CRT has been dominating public discourse across various institutions (politics, education, etc) Frankly, some of the individuals engaging in the debate do not understand it beyond having something to do with race. We already have an extended podcast on CRT featuring Dr. Angela Onwuachi-Willig; but we figured providing a 10 minute crash course on CRT’s major concepts is perfect for today's social media attention span, enjoy!

On this episode will discuss the Model Minority Myth, The term was first coined by a sociologist named William Peterson in a New York Times Magazine article about Japanese Americans, essentially applauding their ability to garner capital and success through efforts on their own despite their racial background, without demanding or protesting anything, in the U.S in the eyes of the greater power structure. This sentiment has since been expanded to the entire group. 

Anti-Asian sentiment has been brewing for months now throughout the pandemic. 

The Center for Study of Hate & Extremism published a report documenting changes in hate crime patterns in 2020 in 16 American cities. According to this study, anti-Asian hate crimes increased by 149% in 2020 while overall hate crimes decreased by 7% seven percent. That surge has increased to 169% through Q1 of 2021 in the state of NY. That being said, hate and oppression of the  AAPI community was not born during the pandemic, it has been a recurring issue throughout American history from “yellow peril” to Japanese internment. Seeing a “model minority” group being treated this way is hypocritical, to say the least.  We have a special guest to help us with today’s conversation who Mr. Kramer will introduce

To this point of our show, we have primarily focused on the oppression of Black people in the United States. On this mini series called Intersectionality, we will analyze the interconnected nature of other marginalized groups; specifically the LGBTQIA community on this episode. It is no secret that homophobia is prevalent in many minority communities including the Black community. Questions that come to our minds include how can we educate to combat this? What are some of the common questions heterosexual individuals have? What are some commonalities between the Black community and the LGBTQ community? What are the differences? Helping us address some of these questions is special guest Andrew Shallow.

Malcolm X has been trending in the news lately, mostly because of the ambiguity that surrounds his untimely death back in 1964. We figured it would be a good time to take a look at his rhetoric from an objective point of view and discuss. Malcolm X was an individual who lived multiple lifetimes despite passing at the age of 39. How should we look back on his legacy? ****(We do not own the rights to the audio clips of Malcolm X used in this episode)****

In this episode we discussed the components of Critical Race Theory, which refers to a social scientific method of examining racism in society. We had the pleasure of sharing this discussion with Dr. Angela Onwuachi-Willig. She is a renowned legal scholar and expert in racial and gender inequality as well as civil rights  and is currently the dean of Boston University School of Law. Not only does she unpack CRT, but she also provides psychological tools and habits that can be used to challenge our own biases.
