Beach Walk 717 - Are Your Responsible for Your Subconscious?

Fri, 14 Nov 2008 09:12:04 GMT

I did a show on the latent racist tendencies many of us have a few weeks ago, Beach Walk 707, talking about how deeply racism (and other "-isms") reside. Exploring a little further, if we resist the notion and feel guilty or go into denial, then it lingers. Maybe not feeling so burdened or responsible for things before our time can free us to notice when we are acting under the influence, and choose to act differently now.

Beach Walk 707 - The Race Against Racism

Wed, 22 Oct 2008 11:02:06 GMT

Do you think of yourself as a racist? Chances are no, That doesn't mean you don't have latent racism. Nicholas Kristof wrote a piece in the NY Times that really helps to explain it. The cure? Out yourself when you have a racist thought, even if it's embarassing. It helps I think to flush up those legacy thoughts that have been passed down from generation to generation, just like, "put a coat on or you'll catch a cold!" Paying attention and breaking the habit - that does work.
