On this episode I give everyone a peak behind the curtain. This is a pre-production meeting between William Johnson and I, as we prepped for an interview with the One and only Jane Elliott. Jane is the creator of the controversial, yet impactful, blue eye-brown eye exercise. This exercise simulates racism for white people.

This a my take on a question Joe Budden posed on Episode 351 of the Joe Budden Podcast. He questioned how racial the George Floyd/Black Lives Matter protests were since he seen police tear-gassing and using excessive force on white people in a similar fashion as they did with black people.

On this episode I listen and react to clips of the Joe Budden Podcast from episodes 349 and 351. The clips pertain to how we rationalize the images and outcomes that we see, versus the rhetoric that is given to us that attempt to explain the narratives surrounding police brutality and racism.

This episode was recorded Tuesday May 26, 2020. On this day the video of George Floyd went viral. 24-48 before we recorded there was the "Central Park Karen" incident. We went on to break down the Joe Biden Breakfast Club interview. Roughly 80 mins into the conversation we discussed to the Washington Post video in which a number of black women spokespersons made an appeal to Joe Biden to select a black woman as his VP running mate. This led to a robust discussion on patriarchy vs matriarchy among the black American population... Be enlightened, be inspired, be empowered!
