Aalia introduces this weeks’ guests, Revolutionary Educator Amen Rahh(@principalrahh) and Super Lawyer B.J.Abron(@bjabron), by aggressively addressing the state of the country(0:45). Amen and B.J. explain the mixed feelings of devastation and empowerment surrounding current events(5:00). B.J. goes on to dispel the notion that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was ultra-peaceful(10:05), while Aalia and Amen point out the hypocrisy surrounding peaceful protests(11:15). All three voices attempt to clear the confusion encircling the Black Lives Matter movement(14:20). Amen and B.J. then respond to Aalia’s break down of the differences between discrimination, prejudice, and racism (21:10). Principal Rahh gives an audible tour of his public service academy, The “U”, and B.J. describes how inspirational the school and its students are to him(31:10). The episode never dies down, as some of the later topics include how fear fuels white privilege and racism(37:55), the inadequate training of police officers(41:20) and the bigger picture behind looters(45:25). But the best might be saved for last when one of the most powerful topics of the episode is brought up—America’s faulty foundation(50:30).
