To many Americans, Clarence Thomas makes no sense. For more than 30 years on the Court, he seems to have been on a mission — to take away rights that benefit Black people. As a young man, though, Thomas listened to records of Malcolm X speeches on a loop and strongly identified with the tenets of Black Nationalism. This week on More Perfect, we dig into his writings and lectures, talk to scholars and confidants, and explore his past, all in an attempt to answer: what does Clarence Thomas think Clarence Thomas is doing?

After a couple of years with little to no human touch, photographer Diane Conn reminds us of the power of human connection in her recent book "Holding Hands."

Ready for some old timey Meghan Markle vibes? Unfortunately, America has its own homegrown case. Back in the day, the Rhinelander name was synonymous with success. The Rhinelanders were as wealthy as they were well connected. They were American royalty. But the Rhinelander family was rocked by scandal when Leonard “Kip” Rhinelander had the audacity to fall in love with a working class woman of color named Alice Jones.  Then Brandi tells us a story that, on the surface, seems pretty straightforward. On February 16, 1981, Arne Cheyenne Johnson killed Alan Bono. That can't be debated. But what can be debated is why Arne killed Alan. According to Arne's defense attorney, the murder wasn't Arne's fault. The devil made him do it. And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases. In this episode, Kristin pulled from: “Rhinelander v Rhinelander: The 1920s Race & Sex Scandal You've Never Heard Of,” by Melina Pendulum on YouTube The Ted Talk, “Challenge your biases, America. Make fairer laws: Angela Onwuachi-Willig at TedxDesMoines” “When one of New York's glitterati married a ‘quadroon,'” by Theodore R. Johnson III for NPR “Love and race caught in the public eye,” by Heidi Ardizzone and Earl Lewis for Notre Dame News “The Rhinelander Affair,” by Carlyn Beccia for HistoryofYesterday.com “Leonard “Kip” Rhinelander Trial,” by Barbara Behan for BlackPast.org “What interracial and gay couples know about passing,” by Angela Onwuachi-Willig for The Atlantic “Rhinelander v. Rhinelander,” entry on Wikipedia In this episode, Brandi pulled from: “By Demons Possessed” by Lynn Darling, Washington Post “The Twisted Murder Trial Of Arne Cheyenne Johnson, The Man Who Claimed To Be Possessed By Demons” by Marco Margaritoff, allthatsinteresting.com “'The Conjuring 3': The True Story Behind 'The Devil Made Me Do It'” by Samuel Spencer, Newsweek “What Really Happened With Arne Cheyenne Johnson's 1981 'The Devil Made Me Do It' Trial?” by Kevin Dolak, oxygen.com “Brookfield man sues over 'demon' book” The News-Times “Trial of Arne Cheyenne Johnson” wikipedia.org YOU'RE STILL READING?

On this bonus episode, Malik runs through a high-level overview of the core tenets of Critical Race Theory (CRT). CRT has been dominating public discourse across various institutions (politics, education, etc) Frankly, some of the individuals engaging in the debate do not understand it beyond having something to do with race. We already have an extended podcast on CRT featuring Dr. Angela Onwuachi-Willig; but we figured providing a 10 minute crash course on CRT's major concepts is perfect for today's social media attention span, enjoy!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/discriminology/donations

In this episode we discussed the components of Critical Race Theory, which refers to a social scientific method of examining racism in society. We had the pleasure of sharing this discussion with Dr. Angela Onwuachi-Willig. She is a renowned legal scholar and expert in racial and gender inequality as well as civil rights  and is currently the dean of Boston University School of Law. Not only does she unpack CRT, but she also provides psychological tools and habits that can be used to challenge our own biases.

Inspired by a conversation around the terms Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) and Person of Color (POC) on this episode of  NPR’s Code Switch (https://www.npr.org/transcripts/918418825) , we have a candid conversation around race, ancestry, and the power and limitation of words from our personal perspective as Mexican immigrants raised in the U.S. We also reflect on the effects of colonialism and colorism on our own connection to our ancestry and the diversity of Latinx experiences in this country.    We kick off this episode by taking some time to reflect on our collective resilience in getting through the uncertainty and difficulty of 2020 and offer some tips to prioritize self and community care in the coming week.   During the episode we reference a conversation (https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?v=2463531250615604&ref=watch_permalink) between writer Julissa Arce with UCLA Professor Laura Gomez, author of Manifest Destinies: The Making of the Mexican American Race,  Latinx voter data (https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2020/10/30/929575586/what-pundits-get-wrong-about-the-latino-vote_) shared by Gerardo Cardava, Professor at Northwestern University, and this New York Times article (https://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2015/06/16/how-fluid-is-racial-identity/race-and-racial-identity-are-social-constructs#:~:text=Angela%20Onwuachi%2DWillig%2C%20a%20professor,Law%20of%20the%20Multiracial%20Family.%22&text=Race%20is%20not%20biological.,It%20is%20a%20social%20construct.) written by Angela Onwuachi-Willig (https://www.law.uiowa.edu/faculty/angela-onwuachi-willig.php) , a professor of law at the University of Iowa College of Law.

On this week's podcast, Law.com legal education editor Karen Sloan talks with two black law deans about a new initiative to mobilize law schools and their communities in the fight for racial equality. Angela Onwuachi-Willig, dean of Boston University School of Law, and Danielle Conway, dean of Penn State Dickinson Law, explain what spurred the Law Deans Antiracist Clearinghouse Project, the change they want to see in the legal academy, and the five phases of work they've laid out to help create greater racial equality inside their institutions and beyond.
