The Black Experience - (Movin' On Up) Navigating Young Adulthood and Being Black in America (Bonus) "So...Here's the thing..."
-
- Self-Improvement
Welcome back and thanks for listening to our podcast, "So...Here's the thing". As we continue to discuss our shared and divergent experiences with being Black in America. Sometimes light, sometimes heavy, we discuss issues like gentrification, Black illiteracy, how we self-identify within our own communities and growing Black and educated and what the word "education" means to many Black Americans.
In this bonus episode, our guests and I discuss violence in the Asian American community and our thoughts about the Black community's response to it. I have to admit that I was fairly ignorant which it came to how prevalent violence in the Asian American community was and continues to be. Further, I wish that our communities of color were not bound together by shared traumas but rather by our shared art, creativity and history in America. That being said, I hope that these discussions continue to serve as a template for you, faithful listener, to open up similar dialogues in your own familial and social circles. I had a lot of fun with my guests and I hope that you will enjoy this episode as much as I did.
Stay tuned as the next several episodes of this season will delve into topics like finding love, stability and yourself as a young adult in today's Black America. These important discussions continue to explore how we move, touch and inspire each other, how we "do the work" and what the next steps can be for the next generation of Black young men and women.
We invite you to peek behind the Black curtain and get a glimpse of some of the complex issues we face within our community. Special thanks to my guests for their participation.
