Episode 39:Juneteenth and Blackness Thoughts From A Counselor

    • Arte

Episode Topic: Juneteenth and Blackness
Segment 1: Intro to Juneteenth
(Lebert) Intro: Like we discussed on our first Juneteenth episode (which was episode 16, go play that), Juneteenth is used to commemorate the day when troops went to Galveston Tx to announce to the remaining slaves that they were free. Unfortunately, not *all* of the enslaved people got their freedom. Enslaved folk living with disabilities still were left on plantations, and share cropping continued to be one way slavery lived on past it’s ending

(Paul) Question 1: So, let’s talk current times. Juneteenth is now an official holiday, so how does that make you feel?

(Lebert) Question 2: As we reflect on Juneteenth and it’s significance, it’s always good to ask what a national day, recognized or not, means to us. So, what does Juneteenth mean to you?

Segment 2: Juneteenth and What Came After
(Paul) Question 1: Juneteenth lead to a lot of changes in our society, and more specifically opened the gates for the beloved HBCU’s we attended and graduated from. So, let’s talk about that. What HBCU did you attend, and how did you select it?

(Lebert) Question 2: What significance did attending a HBCU afford you? What were some of the challenges you faced despite being at your HBCU?

Segment 3: Dimensions of Blackness
(Paul) Question 1: So, with Juneteenth now back in the mainstream, many convos have appeared related to what it means to be Black in America. With Juneteenth in mind, what does being Black in this country mean to you?

(Lebert) Question 2: In what ways did last years Juneteenth influence how you view Juneteenth now?

Segment 4: Closing
(Paul) Lead by Example: Where we highlight those doing good work, or who did good work

(Lebert) Listener question of the day idea: How do you craft an identity?

Key Takeaways!!!
