Kingly Conversations

In this provocative episode of "Kingly Conversations," the hosts ask the question:

Are you racist?. They dive headfirst into a heated debate over the definition of racism and whether Black people can be racist.

Calvin argues that racism is a mindset of hatred or a belief in one's racial superiority, which means anyone from any race can be racist, regardless of their position in society. He challenges the idea that power is a necessary component of racism.

Pushing back, Alan and Zoe contend that racism requires systemic power to marginalize and oppress others. They argue that while Black people can be prejudiced, they lack the institutional control necessary to be racist in America. The discussion explores the historical systems designed to subjugate people, the difference between racism and prejudice, and a hypothetical look at what might happen if the power dynamics in society were reversed.

Let's face it, for hundreds of years, standard history was always taught from the perspective of the winners. The perspective of those in power. It wasn't until fairly recently that other perspectives were able to be pushed into the mainstream consciousness. This is our discussion of that.

There is no research on how much of our individual thinking came from us alone. But it is safe to say that a lot of our thinking comes from our influences. You know who I am talking about. Friends, relatives, and associates. How much of their thinking has become yours? And as Jim Rohn always said, "Is that okay?"

This week, we talk about willful ignorance. What is that even?? How can one willfully be ignorant? It is an act of intentionally keeping oneself unaware of facts or information that would typically lead to unwanted conclusions, responsibilities, or actions.

We see it a lot today and I (Alan) CAN'T STAND IT.

Father's Day, as celebrated in the United States, largely originated from the efforts of Sonora Smart Dodd of Spokane, Washington. Inspired by a Mother's Day sermon in 1909 and wanting to honor her own father, a Civil War veteran who raised six children as a single parent, Dodd campaigned for a similar observance for fathers. The first Father's Day celebration was held on June 19, 1910, in Spokane. While it gained some momentum and presidential support over the years from figures like Woodrow Wilson and Calvin Coolidge, it wasn't until 1972 that President Richard Nixon officially signed it into law, designating the third Sunday in June as a permanent national holiday.
