“White supremacy is a deep socio-spiritual scab that reeks with the stench of antisemitism, oozes the pus of Islamophobia, and festers beneath the hard crust of Christofascism, heterosexism, classism, and sexism .” - Dr. Ruby N. Sales, Director, The Spirit House Project

"CIVICS 201 : Voter Suppression and Disenfranchisement"

Saturday, January 29, 2022 ::: 10 pm ET

Listen Line: (347) 838-9852

WE are facing a tidal wave of restrictive voting legislation across the country and the trend will continue into 2022.

Tonight we present some of the information you need to translate and interpret these efforts in your state. How much do you really know about voter suppression and disenfranchisement happening in your state? Enough to organize and initiate the kind of mobilization needed to resist with effective push-back tools? How do you translate what you are being told by your state representatives as opposed to the reality of the legislative actions being taken?

If you are not engaged in some activity of resisting these oppressive moves, now is the time. Now. Months from now will be too late.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

ANOCRACY

A political system that is neither fully democratic nor fully autocratic, often being vulnerable to political instability.

In this episode of OUR COMMON GROUND, we discuss the rabid weaponization of states' rights in the effort to take control of power in government and thwart the rights of the people by disassembling the democratic process and democracy which protects their agency as citizens.

"King Day: To Forget Is to Forfeit"

Since 1983, communities and organizations have celebrated King Day through various, creative and serious celebrations and forums. A national monument in Washington has been erected in Dr. King's honor. However, there seems to be a diffusion in what we teach, remember and understand about Dr. King's contribution to this country. The holiday seems to have become somewhat less deliberative in our celebrations. 

We now have generations of Black children, a new scholarship that tends to marginalize the power of his transformative power in our own communities. We read and quote his words outside the context and the import of the history he ignited.

"The Final Season: Black Aspiration in a Dying Democracy"

We enter the last Season of OUR COMMON GROUND examining the dire and troubling nature of our country. Each time, we think it cannot get worse, it does. Indeed it does. The system of white supremacy has embedded itself, perhaps permanently, in our system of government and has been normalized in our politics. How must we respond and sustain the spirit that carried us across the unstable bridges of the past?

This Week on OUR COMMON GROUND

OUR COMMON GROUND 2021 Season Review & Close

Looking back at the information, ideas, lessons, and insight during this 2021 Season. As we close, we celebrate our 35 years of broadcasting. Thirty-five years later, I can say that I'm still learning how to amplify Black voices. Still mastering the skill to raise this heavy struggle, manage so much rage and articulate the constant need for assessment of the narrative, but not the history from which it rises. Talking race in courage and with hope continues to be the mission. I salute and am grateful to the hundreds of OUR COMMON GROUNDVOICES who have met with us and offered their keen intelligence and body of knowledge to serve the Black nation. And, to our listeners, we are always appreciative of your support of our programming.

Our final, and the 2022 and Season of OUR COMMON GROUND will premiere on January 8, 2022. We wish you a holiday season filled with the joy and magic of your faith and hope that you will be lifted by the spirit and richness of Kwanzaa.

As always,  I’ll Be Listening for You
