Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

But

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

It's when you get to people who don't live the same experience.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

And their politics could be on the same side or shade of blue, okay?

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

But they're just having a different experience.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

And so we've got to be open to really having the questions in that nuance.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

And then finally, finally, we got to get to the place of understanding that race is a symbol of power, right?

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

It's metaphorical, right?

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

And so you got to not see...

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

that we're all the same and all of those things, red, black, yellow, green, or white, all the stories that you're told.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

No, no, no.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

There is a hierarchy of power, right?

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

And you've got to understand this principle of whiteness.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

You've got to see white supremacy and you've got to see anti-black racism, these two parts of that continuum, right?

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

And as you can step into those three levels, it's about me, definitely.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

There are multiple understandings and experiences existing.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

And there is this system of power race that is about a hierarchy that holds power at white.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

When you get that, we're ready to go.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

Everything can change.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

Well, I I'm headed over to Austin for this this this big convening where we talk about, you know, the great society as opposed to make America great again.

Mick Unplugged
W. Kamau Bell & Glenn Singleton: Confronting Race: Courageous Conversations That Matter

And so that's going to be down at Austin's the 17th and 18th.
