-
- Государство
The chief of police for Honolulu doesn't think we have a structural racism problem within the department. More generally, it's rare that folks in Hawaiʻi are willing to take a deep, long look at the impacts of structural racism and white supremacy on all our lives. People no like talk about race here. But being "colorblind" to race, and masking it with a "melting pot" veneer only allows the damage to worsen. On this episode, we talk through this critical and often-ignored issue of racism in Hawaiʻi, with a specific emphasis on anti-Blackness here.
Featuring Professor Ken Lawson (University of Hawaiʻi Law School, Hawaiʻi Innocence Project); Nate Hix (Living Wage Hawaiʻi, YPDA Economic Justice Chair); Jeff Kim (Sunrise Movement Honolulu); Will Caron (YPDA Co-Chair).
