#SimplyPut with Chaz Smith

Welcome to the Simply Put Podcast hosted by Chaz Smith where we discuss difficult topics in simple terms with extraordinary people. Listen in to intimate conversations with some of your favorite influencers and artists as well as everyday people discussing those taboo topics that you might not feel comfortable talking about. Hearing other people’s stories is often what touches the soul. My heart’s desire is to tackle those hard-to-talk-about issues facing this generation and find the answers we’ve all been searching for.

    Learning to Hate: Jane Elliott on American Racism

    For the first episode of this series on Racism in America, Jane Elliott, a world renown human rights educator, drops some solid knowledge about what it’s been like fighting for equality since the Civil Rights era up until now. She believes racism is very easily learned, adapted into our belief systems, and ingrained in our legal systems, which is something she’s proven time and time again with her “Brown Eyes, Blue Eyes” exercise. Her work has given her opportunities to appear on national shows like Oprah and The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, teach diversity training for multiple branches of the military and various Fortune 500 companies, and directly impact hundreds of thousands of lives. Check out her most recent book, “A Collar in My Pocket”, to learn more about her story and work!
