    TPL PODCAST : Talking with Teachers - pt 2 w/ Caroline

    TPL PODCAST: Talking with Teachers In this second installment of the Talking with Teachers series. We discussed the anti-CRT legislation and the ignorance of some parents who make assumptions based on appearance. We concluded that the proposed legislation would harm public education and increase the school-to-prison pipeline. We also discussed the hypocrisy of anti-CRT legislation and the importance of supporting public school teachers. They also discussed the need to acknowledge teachers' impact on society and the importance of standing up for them. #Tennessee #Teachers #TPL ⁠https://www.facebook.com/TennesseeProgressiveLeague⁠ ⁠https://wappint.capitol.tn.gov/Supporting%20Documents/HR%20Scanned%20Amendments/HB1202_Amendment%20(006894).pdf

    TPL PODCAST / Talking with Teachers Pt 1. Caroline

    In the first installment of an ongoing series Talking with Teachers, the Tennessee Progressive League spoke with a teacher in Tennessee named Caroline. In this conversation, we discussed the proposed legislation to arm teachers in Tennessee. Caroline expressed that it is not what teachers signed up for and is not a feasible solution. We also discussed the increased frequency of violent events at schools and the lack of discussion about it when Caroline was in college and training to be a teacher. Tennessee Progressive League and Caroline also discussed the issue of the potential for charter schools to increase economic disparities. https://www.facebook.com/TennesseeProgressiveLeague https://wappint.capitol.tn.gov/Supporting%20Documents/HR%20Scanned%20Amendments/HB1202_Amendment%20(006894).pdf #HB 1202

    Tennessee Progressive League Podcast Pt3: Conversation with 360Collective

    In the final part of my conversation with the 360 Collective members Tim and Issac, we conclude with our discussion on the best path towards achieving social justice and what paths might be most viable. We also talk about the skewed political dynamic in the U.S. and where our politics would be considered globally. We also discuss why poor white people would vote against their interests. We discuss what is "whiteness" in the U.S. as a concept including the connection between class and race concerning being marginalized in societies. This leads to speaking about how both class and race are used to further the cause of white supremacy. We conclude this convo by talking about how there is a pushback about reparations and restorative justice measures within the black and brown communities among those more prone to benefit from white supremacy and what it means to win hearts and minds for change. Unfortunately, the events mentioned were in  Feb before I could get this episode out, but check their archives and check their page for all their current discussions.  https://www.dyingofwhiteness.com, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dying_of_Whiteness website:https://www.360collective.online Social Media Links: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064960950772,     https://www.instagram.com/360_collective_knowledge/ , https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQrt_eYi7RJIPuKQOd_e4AA/videos https://www.facebook.com/TennesseeProgressiveLeague/ , https://www.facebook.com/Knowville/ ,  https://www.youtube.com/@knowvillepodcastnetwork4285

    TPL Podcast Episode 360Collective pt2

    In this continuing conversation, we talk about the history of federal policies for the betterment of America at the detriment of Black Americans such as the interstate system. We discuss the best way to advocate for commercial compensation to black America for the centuries-long practice of wealth extraction from the  Black community via the means of eminent domain and depressed housing values. The conversation moves from there to discussing reparations and restitution initiatives and what that path might look like.      https://www.npr.org/2021/04/07/984784455/a-brief-history-of-how-racism-shaped-interstate-highways https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2022/04/26/wells-fargo-being-sued-discriminating-against-black-borrowers/7451521001/ website:https://www.360collective.online Social Media Links: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064960950772,     https://www.instagram.com/360_collective_knowledge/ , https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQrt_eYi7RJIPuKQOd_e4AA/videos https://www.facebook.com/TennesseeProgressiveLeague/ , https://www.facebook.com/Knowville/ ,  https://www.youtube.com/@knowvillepodcastnetwork4285

    TPL PODCAST EP3 feat 360 Collective

    I enjoyed speaking with the 360 collective members Isaac Castelaz and Timothy Hampton in this episode. In this conversation, we discussed the attempt by the political right to co-opt the term "Woke" and Social Justice Warrior. We then discuss their previous episode about Oscarville and how that is a re-occurring event in American history.  In this diverse conversation, we discuss a myriad of topics in pt 1.  website:https://www.360collective.online, Social Media Links: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064960950772,     https://www.instagram.com/360_collective_knowledge/ , https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQrt_eYi7RJIPuKQOd_e4AA/videos https://www.facebook.com/TennesseeProgressiveLeague/ , https://www.facebook.com/Knowville/ ,  https://www.youtube.com/@knowvillepodcastnetwork4285
