And so we're doing this podcast and I want to know more about his technique.
And I asked Daryl to describe it.
And he says basically what he does is he w he walks up to these white supremacists, or sometimes they'll approach him after he's he's performed a gig uh in a bar, and they'll come up to him and strike up a conversation about music.
And then you know at some point they will disclose, you know, I'm a member of the Ku Klux Klan.
And Darryl will ask just one question.
He wants to know, how can you hate me when you don't even know me?
I think what's so powerful about that question is
is a hard one for people to answer.
And so these white supremacists will say, Well, you know, your you know, your group has done a lot of bad things.
And Daryl will say, Absolutely.
And you know, then he'll ask them some more questions back.
And eventually he will help them unpack their own reasons to question their beliefs.
And as he was describing this, I just said, This is this is persu I mean, this is motivational interviewing.
It's a masterclass in how to do that.
Because he's not telling them you shouldn't believe this.
He's not saying, I'm actually as good as you and you are wrong.
He's not preaching his beliefs, he's not prosecuting their.
Beliefs, he's curious.
He wants to understand how did you arrive at that view and how do you sustain it?
