Systemic

Racism is a systemic part of American society. From the first chattel laws to present-day police brutality, racism is at the very core of who America is. Systemic’s goal is to explore aspects of race and racism in America. The aim is to educate and explain the intertwining of race as a systemic part of American culture. We hope each episode enlightens and drives you to help work towards an anti-racist future.

  1. Jim Crow Imagery

    Jim Crow Imagery

    When you think about Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben, what comes to mind? Beloved American food mascots or the caricatures of racist stereotypes for African Americans? In this episode of systemic, our host Dan Kimbrough sits down with Dr. David Pilgrim, founder and director of the Jim Crow Museum of Racist Imagery. We discuss the toxic legacy of the Jim Crow era - a dark chapter in American history marked by systemic oppression, dehumanizing propaganda, and the weaponization of racist imagery. Dr. Pilgrim shares his personal journey of collecting these objects of intolerance over the past four decades, and the devastating realizations that fueled his life's work. We'll explore how these hurtful caricatures and stereotypes were used to uphold a horrific racial hierarchy, and discover the lasting impact they continue to have on our society. But this is no mere history lesson. Dr. Pilgrim outlines his bold plan to expand the museum, using the power of witness, understanding, and healing to confront America's painful past and inspire lasting change. We'll hear about the museum's mission to elevate the stories of African American achievement and resistance, and challenge visitors to consider their own role in building a more just and equitable future. This is an unnerving conversation that will stay with you long after the episode ends. Join us as we reckon with the ugly truths of our history, and find the courage to create the change we wish to see in the world.   Museum Website - https://jimcrowmuseum.ferris.edu/

  3. DEI and Leadership

    DEI and Leadership

    Headlines scream the "decline" of DEI, but here's the truth: most efforts have been performative. We're talking black squares on social media, not dismantling systemic bias. On this episode of Systemic, our host Dan Kimbrough talks with Farah Bala, a Leadership EDIA (Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, Anti-Oppression) expert. We unpack why surface-level DEI fails and what true inclusion looks like. Farah Bala's story reminds us that belonging starts with feeling welcome, regardless of background. We'll also hear from others who navigated identity, immigration, and career changes. Is DEI dead? No, but the performative efforts are gasping for breath.  We explore: Why superficial DEI efforts fail. How to move beyond outdated practices and have uncomfortable conversations. Leadership's role in creating lasting change. Tune in to find out what real anti-bias work looks like.  email - farah@gofarsight.com LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/thefarsightagency/ Website - https://www.gofarsight.com/ #DEI #workplaceculture #antiracism

    Healthcare Inequity Series: Covid in Prison

    hen we think of prison, we often focus on the criminal aspect of the institution. These individuals broke the law and are being punished for doing so. But the punishment, as intended, was to be removed from society for a predefined amount of time, and then, as part of your agreement, you are released back into society. But, while in prison, many prisoners are dehumanized and receive treatment that far exceeds their actual sentence. Much of this is due, primarily, to the physical and psychological designs of the prisons themselves. Humane and dignified treatment was never part of the equation, and when you throw in a worldwide pandemic, how does a facility meant to confine and control people, in small dehumanizing spaces, properly care for those in its charge? On this episode of Systemic our host, Dan Kimbrough, speaks with Professor Brittany Friedman, a sociologist from the University of Southern California about the effects of COVID-19 within our prison system. Professor Friedman discusses the design flaws of the US prison system and how they were exposed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Professor Friedman shares how prisons were never meant to be healthcare facilities and how their punitive culture made containing the virus nearly impossible. She argues the roots of mass incarceration lie in slavery and calls for a complete reimagining of how we address harm in society. This episode of Systemic is sponsored by The Black Equity Coalition. The Black Equity Coalition is a group of experts from diverse fields working tirelessly to address institutional racism and structural impediments that continue to plague Black, undervalued, and underserved communities. Initially focused on responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Coalition has committed to working towards racial and health equity beyond the pandemic's eventual end by engaging the disparities in the five social determinants of health for the underserved (Our necessary means of health and survival). Through the collective efforts of physicians, researchers, epidemiologists, public health and health care practitioners, social scientists, community funders, and government officials, the Black Equity Coalition is dedicated to ensuring that vulnerable populations have access to health, well-being, and economic stability.

    Healthcare Inequity Series: Food Dignity® Movement

    In this episode of Systemic, we hear from food activist Clancy Harrison and discuss the issues of food insecurity and The Food Dignity® Movement.  Clancy shares stories from her 14 years of experience from a nutritionist to fighting hunger, and explains The Food Dignity® Movement's approach of centering their work around other's lived experiences. We learn about the different levels of food security and insecurity and the internal and external stigmas associated with food assistance. Clancy also discusses some of the systemic roots of inequities in the food system and offers insights from those she's spoken to and worked with on dismantling biases to better empower communities.  As a food equity advocate, registered dietitian, and TEDx speaker, Clancy Harrison challenges the way food insecurity is approached and discussed. She is the founder of the Food Dignity® Movement, a strategic program for leaders who want to shift how they approach nutrition outreach by making healthy food access a priority with dignity. Currently, Clancy is an advisory board member for the Pennsylvania American Academy of Pediatrics Food Insecurity EPIC program, Ambassador of the National Dairy Council, and a past President of the Al Beech West Side Food Pantry where she has served over 4 million meals during the COVID-19 pandemic.

  7. Early Black Film

    2023/07/07

    Early Black Film

    Hollywood’s representation of underserved and marginalized populations has been under scrutiny since the first film flickered. Authentic storytelling that fully embraces the complexity and vibrancy of any people must be rooted in, and informed by, those people. Early in the 20th Century, film provided a window to the lives, stories, and narratives of those far and wide. And, as we learned from the comic book industry, with great power, comes great responsibility! Unfortunately, many early filmmakers used this power to further spread inaccuracies and hatred. One of these most famous films is “Birth of a Nation,” D. W. Griffith's 1915 adaptation of the 1905 novel, “The Clansmen.” It tells the story of two families dealing with the fallout of the civil war with a very slanted view. To contrast, early Black filmmaker and novelist Oscar Micheaux wrote and directed the 1919 film “The Homesteader,” which chronicled life for Black Americans during post-civil War, but from an authentic perspective, offering a counter-argument to Griffith and the work of other filmmakers at the time. In this episode of Systemic, our host Dan Kimbrough sits down with Dr. Charlene Regester from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Dr. Regester teaches in the Department of African, African American, and Diaspora Studies, and her work focuses on early black film history, including black filmmakers, actresses, actors, and performers.Our discussion looks at the life and works of Oscar Micheaux and how we almost lost them; the film-going and artistic experience for Black people in the early 20th century; and the lessons filmmakers and society as a whole should learn from these early efforts.
