The Context of White Supremacy Radio Program welcomes Dr. Raúl Pérez. An assistant professor of sociology at the University of La Verne in California, Dr. Pérez teaches courses on Racial and Ethnic Relations, Racism and Anti-Racism, Research Methods, and Comedy and Society. For thirteen agonizing years, Gus T. has hosted The C.O.W.S. Radio Program and strenuously re-stated that Racist Jokes are a critically important component of White culture and undeniable evidence that Whites are not ignorant, but, rather, dedicated and "tickled pink" about terrorizing non-white people (especially those designated black). We've asked hundreds of White guests from around the globe to share Racist jokes with us - typically, they refuse. A "cotton-picking" twitter follower alerted Gus to Dr. Pérez's new book, The Souls of White Jokes: How Racist Humor Fuels White Supremacy.  Gus was extremely reluctant since we have a strict WHITE GUEST ONLY POLICY at The C.O.W.S. However, this text makes many of the same observations Gus has noted for over a decade. Unfortunately, Dr. Pérez still suggests the dangerous lie of "white ignorance," and he sometimes narrows the focus to so-called "right wing," and "far right" extreme groups, when Racists jokes are the foundation of what it means to be White throughout the universe. President Obama is a central character in this book - as is the word "coon." #NoFoolin #LOL #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

Here is SHOW #66 - CELEBRATING 4 YEARS OF RACE & ETHNIC RELATIONS ON CAMPUS BOOK.  In this show, I CELEBRATE the publication of my 2018 book entitled, "Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus: Understanding, Empowerment, and Solutions for College Students." It is a book that I am most proud of because so many college students are embracing and taking the time to discuss these serious race and ethnic relations issues. It is an academic topic that still gets overlooked because of the sensitivity of the topics yet it is a topic that TODAY'S college students are desperately wanting to discuss and DEBATE. This book provides the foundation, direction and momentum to take race and ethnic relations issues to a DEEPER LEVEL. In this podcast, I also highlight the chapters and give you the major reasons why I wrote this book some 4 years ago. Interestingly, many of the issues in this book relate directly to events and issues today in 2022 AND beyond! After listening to this CELEBRATORY podcast, send me your thoughts about my book at: baileye@ecu.edu OR ejb678@gmail.com. As always, take the time to get to know others who look different than you so that each and everyone of us can help SOLVE many of the challenging issues related to race and ethnic relations in our communities, our state, our country, and our world! PEACE OUT!

Here is Show #64 - MY COLLEGE STUDENTS DID A FANTASTIC JOB IN COMING TOGETHER. In this show, I highlight the outstanding and fantastic job that my college students in my Race and Ethnic Relations class at ECU did this past spring semester! I was pleasantly pleased in their interactions, discussions, photos, and frank comments on a number of culturally and societal sensitive issues throughout the entire semester. These students wanted to LEARN from other students who did not look like them and they absorbed it wholeheartedly! Of course, there were disagreements and debates on certain topics yet it was done professionally and with respect. In the end, my students STEPPED UP, CONFRONTED POLITICALLY-SENSITIVE TOPICS and CAME TOGETHER! I believe that's what my class is all about and it gives me HOPE and ASPIRATION that the next set of students will want to DIVE DEEPER into many of these race and ethnic relations issues that they do not get the opportunity to discuss academically in the college years. Please send me an email at: ejb678@gmail.com to share some POSITIVE comments about COMING TOGETHER and SOLUTIONS on how to IMPROVE Race and Ethnic Relations on your college campus or in our communities throughout the U.S.! Have a Great summer and PEACE OUT!

Here is SHOW #59 - "COLLEGE STUDENTS WANT MORE SERIOUS & FUN DISCUSSIONS ABOUT RACE & ETHNIC RELATIONS" in which I discuss how my college students in the Race and Ethnic Relations class that I currently teach truly challenged themselves and enjoyed the class! I have been pleasantly SURPRISED how much more information and discussions that they wanted on each and every topic that I brought up in the lectures and the class exercises. I had to realize that many college students DO NOT get this opportunity in our COLLEGES and UNIVERSITIES today so they welcomed this opportunity to DIVE DEEPER into a number of SERIOUS and FUN issues related to race and ethnic relations in their lives TODAY. This is also my FINAL SHOW of the YEAR and I wanted to THANK ALL OF MY COLLEGE STUDENTS who have taken this class over the years and hopefully it has helped them too!

Here is Show #49 - "RACISM AND VIOLENCE TOWARDS ASIAN AMERICAN" of the Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus Podcast Show. Unfortunately, I have to talk about the TRAGIC events that recently happened in Atlanta, Georgia in which eight individuals -- six of whom were Asian American women -- were killed by a lone gunman. Not only do I talk about this tragedy, but also take a DEEPER DIVE into how this situation affects ALL of US in different ways whether personally, group-wise, politically, socially, and mentally. There is no doubt that there is much hatred, violence and misconceptions still throughout our U.S. and even our President and Vice President cannot stop this trend against Asian Americans unless ALL OF US STAND UP AGAINST IT and BE PRO-ACTIVE and TAKE ACTION against all forms of this belief and behavior.  Please take the time to listen to my heart-felt, personal and professional show. Feel free to email me (ejb678@gmail.com) and share your personal situations or strategies to overcome these types of events.

Here is Show #48 - "RACE AND VACCINATIONS FOR COVID-19" of the Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus Podcast Show.

Data shows that the most vulnerable populations and segments of our population who have LOST THEIR LIVES due to COVID-19 are: (1) High risk folks with serious health and medical conditions, (2) Elderly, (3) Underserved, low-income, rural, inner-city, and densely-populated communities, and (4) RACIAL & ETHNIC POPULATIONS such as African Americans, Hispanic/Latinos, American Indians & Alaskan Natives, and Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders. HOWEVER, now that the vaccines are being distributed throughout the U.S., those who are ACTUALLY receiving the vaccines are NOT THOSE SEGMENTS OF OUR POPULATION!! Hummmm.. Why is this happening now in 2021? Well, I share a few of my thoughts in this CONTROVERSIAL show as a REMINDER to our LEADERSHIP in our country, state, and institutions!!

In this show, I discuss the SECOND debate between Biden vs Trump and where the topic of "RACE" was discussed between the two candidates. Overall, the moderator did an excellent job in keeping both candidates on topic and she actually had RACE discussed TWICE in this debate. However, the topic of "RACE" was still NOT A PRIORITY among the candidates and it was very interesting how THEY responded to it when "Race" the issue! AMAZING!!!

I also discuss when I voted for the first time as a Freshman student at the age of 18 in college and it was EMPOWERING! So if you BELIEVE in yourself and want to make a CHANGE or keep things the SAME, go out and VOTE! The power of the 18-24yr age voting block is very powerful on the local level, state level and the national level. So again, YOUR VOTE MAKES A DIFFERENCE! If you agree or disagree with my opinions, please send me an email at: ejb678@gmail.com. PEACE OUT!

Here is SHOW #38 - "ENOUGH!" of the Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus Podcast Show. In this show, I talk about the latest shooting of African American males by police officers -- JACOB BLAKE.  In the wake of this incident, I also highlight the George Floyd tragic shooting at the beginning of the summer. In the midst of all the SHOCK by the African American community and others, I focus on the WORDS of Jacob Blake's mother! She is a phenomenal mother who shares WORDS OF WISDOM and CALMNESS in this troubling times. I also talk about my COLLEGE STUDENTS beginning the new academic year and ready to do their part to STOP the HATE, STOP the SHOOTINGS and time for ACTION. If you agree or disagree with my opinions, please send me an email at: ejb678@gmail.com.  PEACE OUT FOLKS and STAY CALM!

Here is my SPECIAL PROMO for the Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus Podcast Show. In this promo, I highlight why I started this Podcast Show and the topics which I discuss. These podcast shows discuss all the various issues related to race and ethnic relations affecting college students, faculty and administrators.  Basically, I try to bring a more realistic and personal perspective to these controversial and humorous issues that are related to race and ethnic relations. PEACE OUT!

This is Show #37 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - PUSHBACK in which I discuss what happens oftentimes to many African American professionals who attempt to create new activities or programs at their institution. For some reason throughout my academic professional career, I received PUSHBACK from the administration and peers when I attempted to create something new and move beyond my basic responsibilities as a professor. WHY does this occur? Humm... Well, I discuss this MAJOR ISSUE and give you my PERSPECTIVE as to the reasons why! After listening to this podcast show, send me an email at: ejb678@gmail.com and let me know if this has happened to you or others! PEACE OUT!

This is Show #36 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - COLLEGE STUDENTS: WHAT TO EXPECT FROM ACADEMIA IN 2020-2021 in which I discuss how colleges and universities will respond to the tragic events that happened this spring & summer. Now that a majority of colleges and universities have made their institutions' STATEMENT against racism, discrimination and injustice, there will more than likely be new PROGRAMS, INITIATIVES, COLLEGE COURSES, WEBINARS, DISCUSSION GROUPS, COMMITTEES, and OFFICES developed to address these issues for college students this upcoming academic year of 2020-2021. This is a GOOD THING! Yet, I also encourage all colleges and universities to follow through and continue their new initiatives and INSTITUTIONALIZE them into their system so that future college students will also benefit. After listening to this podcast, I would TRULY like to hear from College Students across the U.S. and share with me the new initiatives that are being planned at your particular college and/or university. Email me at: ejb678@gmail.com. IT'S TIME FOR ACTION!

In this interview, Doug Clay talks with Scott Temple, Director of Ethnic Relations at the NLRC about his miraculous testimony and work to ministry to immigrants and refugees in the United States.

This is Show #35 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - BLACK RAGE - WAKE UP AMERICA - PART II - in which I discuss the events that has happened AFTER the tragic death of George Floyd and how MAINSTREAM AMERICA responded! First, it is good that many institutions, organizations, associations, societies, departments and committees responded in a WRITTEN STATEMENT against racism, hate and discrimination against underrepresented groups in America. However, these statements tended to be POLITICALLY CORRECT STATEMENTS which included all groups which have received discriminatory behavior and actions. From my perspective, we may have lost sight of the real issue ALREADY!!  From the folks who I have spoken with during the past couple of weeks, we are looking for CHANGE OF BEHAVIOR, BELIEFS, UNDERSTANDING AND "HEART" from Mainstream America!! Are YOU "Mainstream America" willing and READY to change your HEART in understanding what an African American male - "Black Male" has had to endure in our THE UNITED STATES! That is the BASIC ISSUE!! So check out my VERY PERSONAL PODCAST if you want to hear from this very PROUD African American male in 2020!! Send your comments to: ejb678@gmail.com or baileye@ecu.edu. LET'S DEVELOP SOME NEW POLICIES AND SOLUTIONS FOLKS!!

This is Show #34 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - BLACK RAGE - WAKE UP AMERICA! - in which I discuss the TRAGIC death of George Floyd who died while being arrested by police officers in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota just a few days ago. This event was also caught on video from several sources primarily through cell phones from passerby citizens and concerned citizens that witness this event. This is by far the MOST DISTURBING event that I witness on video in which this African American man was brutally treated and loss his life. The events after his death has UNFORTUNATELY enraged the African American community not only in Minneapolis but in major cities across the U.S.. My purpose of conducting this PODCAST SHOW is to LOOK FOR JUSTICE, SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM PEACEFUL SOLUTIONS and a BETTER UNDERSTANDING of the MULTITUDE of issues affecting the African American community and all other communities who are different than mainstream America! It's TIME FOR AMERICA TO WAKE UP!! Please send me your SUGGESTIONS for SOLUTIONS at ejb@678@gmail.com

This is Show #33 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - RACE - SHOULD WE GET RID OF IT? - in which I discuss the possibility that our society should consider getting rid of our U.S. racial categories COMPLETELY! Since many of my college and university students are no longer making RACE a major issue with their friends and classmates at college, then why should scholars, researchers, administrators and the GENERAL PUBLIC still use RACE as a marker for which group an individual belongs to! So I pose the question to my PODCAST AUDIENCE -- SHOULD WE GET RID OF OUR RACIAL CATEGORIES and CAN YOU IMAGINE OUR WORLD WITHOUT THE CONCEPT of "RACE?" Please send me your thoughts, opinions and suggestions at ejb678@gmail.com. It is 2020 and it's time to take a NEW DIRECTION in our WORLD and maybe this is the START!! THINK ABOUT IT!!

This is Show #32 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - How College Students Can Solve Race and Ethnic Relations Issues - in which I discuss how my current college students in my class have developed some very insightful, engaging and innovative SOLUTIONS for improving race and ethnic relations on our campus! In fact, when students realize in our class that their ideals will be appreciated and potentially implemented in our university initiatives, they actually develop some remarkable solutions. This podcast show encourages MORE student development on all college campus in solving their individual race and ethnic relations issues and incidents. If you AGREE or DISAGREE or even if you have your own SOLUTION, email me at: ejb678@gmail.com. Let's Do this Together and let STUDENTS develop our NEW SOLUTIONS for improving race and ethnic relations on our college campus across the U.S. today and in the future!

This is Show #31 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Challenging Our Politically Correct Society - in which I discuss the problems in which our politically correct society today places upon our college students today! A majority of my college students feel constrained during class discussions because they are uncertain as to what they can say in class. In order to move my students FORWARD, I encourage them to share their individual perspective in a respectful yet HONEST way so that we can challenge our current political correctness particularly as it relates to race and ethnic relations. After review of this podcast show, please share me your professional opinion by emailing me at: ejb678@gmail.com . This is NOT A POLITICALLY CORRECT SHOW but an HONEST SHOW about improving race and ethnic relations on college campuses.

This is Show #30 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Why I Wrote this Book - in which I discuss the major reasons that inspired me to write this book on race and ethnic relations among today's college students. Unfortunately, over the recent years in teaching college classes, I noticed that many of my students were not taking any effort in getting to know other students who happened to look different than them. That concerned me immensely. Most importantly, since our colleges and universities are increasingly becoming DIVERSE and our DIVERSE NOW, it is important to find ways to get all of our students to come together. Finally, now since we ALL are going through the Coronavirus/COVID-19 stay at home period, we are realizing that ALL OF US ARE IN THE SAME BOAT and WE MUST GET ALONG! So if you want to hear my comments about these topics, please listen to this VERY SPECIAL MILESTONE PODCAST SHOW and send me an email at: ejb678@gmail.com or baileye@ecu.edu. The time is NOW to COME TOGETHER.

This is Show #29 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Coronavirus Pandemic and College Students - PART II in which I discuss how we (Faculty, Administrators, Staff and College students) are adjusting and adapting to our new reality. That new reality is that our college and university must place ALL content and job activities ONLINE and VIRTUAL FORMAT because our Federal, State and Local governments stated that we must keep SOCIAL DISTANCING pattern and NOT meet in large groups of 10 or more. Therefore, all industries including HIGHER EDUCATION must go into this HOLDING-PATTERN and deliver services to all students DIFFERENTLY.  Fortunately, a majority of my classes were already online. Yet how are a majority of college students across the United States adjusting to their particular college and university situation. For all COLLEGE STUDENTS LISTENING TO THIS PODCAST, Please email at: ejb678@gmail.com or baileye@ecu.edu and let me know how YOUR college and university is making the adjustment! THANKS!

This is Show #28 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Coronavirus Pandemic and College Students in which I discuss the current state of the Coronovirus and how it is affecting all college students and universities across the United States. Once considered an epidemic isolated in other countries, now our United States has had to make serious adjustments and adaptations to this very serious disease. Not surprisingly, all colleges and universities are instituting their own measures to reduce the spread of the virus and many colleges and universities are making their student population to return home and complete their courses ONLINE! I highlight these issues but also recognize that this pandemic involves practical public health prevention strategies for a majority of folks. Check out this VERY SERIOUS PODCAST SHOW and if you have comments, please send them to: ejb678@gmail.com or baileye@ecu.edu. A big thanks to ALL OF MY SPONSORS TOO!!

This is Show #27 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Self-Confidence: The Key to Improving Race Relations in which I discuss the importance of an individual's SELF-CONFIDENCE because it is directly related to positive race relations. In fact, every student practices a wide variety of self-confidence strategies yet few students actually share their individual strategies with other college students. In this show, I encourage college students to not only identify their individual self-confidence strategies but also share them with other students. You will be surprised what each college student uses to excel in college - academically, socially, culturally and meeting new college students who happen to look different than them!! That's how self-confidence can improve race relations. If you agree or disagree, feel free to email me at: ejb678@gmail.com or even baileye@ecu.edu . I want to thank my Podcast platform supporters - Podbean, Apple Podcast, Google Play, Spotify, YouTube, PlayerFM, Listen Notes, and iHeartRadio. Of course, a special acknowledgment to my publisher -- ABC- CLIO too!

This is Show #26 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Internalized Racism: Why is it More Prevalent Today? in which I discuss this particular type of racism has such a detrimental impact on college students of color and minority students today. This is a topic that is often neglected, overlooked, or blatantly ignored by many scholars, administrators, professors, and family members yet it is a REAL ISSUE because I see it everyday among many of my college students as well as having personal experiences with it when I was a college student decades ago! Not only do I address this issue, I also try to provide some practical and tangible solutions/strategies to overcome this very real mental health issue among many of my college students TODAY in 2020! If you AGREE or DISAGREE, please feel free to send me an email at: ejb678@gmail.com.

This is Show #25 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - RACISM - What Type of Racism are We Experiencing in 2020? - in which I discuss and breakdown the concept of "racism" in 2020!! It is different from the racism from other time periods and I want to find out if majority of Americans agree that there really is still racism in society today, what type of racism is it. The three type of RACISM that I highlight are: (1) Institutionalized Racism (2) Personally-Mediated, and (3) Internalized Racism.  After listening to my Podcast, let me know if you AGREE or DISAGREE at: ejb678@gmail.com. I want to thank one of my major sponsor and publisher of my 2018 book - ABC-CLIO, along with Podbean, iTUNES, Google play, Spotify, YouTube and iHeartRadio!

This is Show #24 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Is it Necessary for Our Leaders to be Culturally-Sensitive and Compassionate in 2020? - in which I discuss this very political issue because it seems that a majority of Americans are not considering these issues as a priority for our NATIONAL, STATE, AND LOCAL LEADERS today in 2020! Listen to my podcast and I will give you the reasons why I came to my conclusion about this very serious POLITICAL and CULTURAL ISSUES in our country in 2020! Please send me an email at: ejb678@gmail.com. I want to thank all of my sponsors and particularly by publisher of my book - ABC-CLIO!

This is Show #23 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Do Most Americans Really Care about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday? - in which I discuss the reality of this holiday and how it's viewed by most Americans. The answer to this question is - NO - unfortunately, I feel that most Americans do not care about this Federal holiday and only think about their own particular issue and totally forget about how Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. sacrificed his life and how his journey through the Civil Rights era caused our United States to take a serious look at itself to HONOR this fallen American HERO!! Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is just not an African American cultural event, it is a NATIONAL CELEBRATION for ALL PEOPLE. Please email me at: baileye@ecu.edu or ejb678@gmail.com if you AGREE or DISAGREE. Yes, it's 2020, new year, new DECADE and NEW ATTITUDE!! We are BRINGING IT!!! PEACE OUT and let's COME TOGETHER! That's what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would have wanted.

This is Show #22 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Who Should Teach Race Oriented Classes in College? - in which I discussed what is happening in academia where more NON-PERSONS of COLOR are teaching race and ethnic oriented classes in all types of disciplines. This is a major trend happening at many colleges and universities across this country.  My answer is -- A PERSON OF COLOR should naturally teach these classes - 1st priority!! Yet if the college or university does not have that person as a faculty member then the MOST PASSIONATE, RESEARCH FOCUSED, COMMITTED AND SINCERE person should be able to teach these types of classes. Yet, universities and colleges are taking the easy way out. Listen to my Podcast Show and email me at: baileye@ecu.edu or ejb678@gmail.com if you AGREE OR DISAGREE!! It's 2020 and it's time for a new ATTITUDE. PEACE OUT and let's enjoy this NEW DECADE TOGETHER!

This is Show #21 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Do We Live in a Post-Racial Society? - in which I discussed the realistic and practical issue of post-racial society and the fact that do most Americans really feel comfortable around folks who look different than them. What is you opinion?  This is the first show of 2020 and I'm bringing it with a different attitude! My answer was NO! We as Americans... do not live in a Post-Racial society even though most Americans would like to think that we do. Check out my Podcast and hear the reasons why? Please email me at: baileye@ecu.edu OR ejb678@gmail.com  and add to the discussion! I'm really looking forward to your response. PEACE OUT and we are really in a NEW DECADE!!

This is Show #20 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Teaching a Race Relations Seminar - Day 4 - in which I discussed many of the major sensitive concepts related to race and ethnic relations such as prejudice, racial prejudice, discrimination, explanations of racial prejudice and functions of racial prejudice. Although my students were ready to open our discussion up to many more of the day to day issues happening at our campus at the time, I made sure that we had a thorough discussions of the sensitive topics first and then we could address a few of the campus race and ethnic relations issues. This was another healthy sensitive discussion in which I felt my students wanted more feedback from me as to how our campus administrators reacted to some race relations issues at the time. In any case, I felt it is important to take "one step at a time" in discussing these very important race and ethnic relations issues. After you listen to this podcast, please send me an email: ejb678@gmail.com so that I can get your feedback on this podcast and these culturally sensitive issues!

This is Show #19 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Teaching a Race Relations Seminar - Day 3 - in which I discussed the most serious topics of the seminar up to this point in time. Although I had framed out the lecture topics for the students, it was really the non-lecture topics which caused this class to be incredibly personal and thought-provoking! Such culturally sensitive issues such as "FEAR" of black males and "Affirmative Action Programs" caused us to re-assess and re-examine more of the basic and practical issues of race relations. After you listen to this podcast, please send me an email: ejb678@gmail.com so that I can get your feedback on this podcast and these two issues!

This is Show #18 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Teaching a Race Relations Seminar - Day 2 - in which I discussed the importance of addressing these serious and culturally sensitive issues in this second class. Here I defined and received direct input from my Honor students about the key issues related to our class. These concepts and issues were as follows: race, racism, indirect racism, internalized racism, ethnocentrism, cultural relativism, and race relations. After discussing these key issues with my Honor students, I could tell we had made major progress in the direction and outcome of this course by the end of Day 2. If you have any comments after listening to this show, please feel free to email me at: ejb678@gmail.com . I look forward to your feedback and input!

This is Show #17 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Teaching a Race Relations Seminar - Day 1 - in which I discuss the challenges of teaching a college seminar on race relations to a group of Honor students at my university.  During Day 1, I felt unsure as an instructor on how to approach my students and I could tell that they did not feel comfortable with me as an African American professor initially. Thus, I talk about how we overcame these very subtle issues in order to begin teaching this very sensitive topic of "race relations." If you have any comments, feel free to email me at: ejb678@gmail.com. I look forward to your feedback and input!

This is Show #16 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Protesting the U.S. President - Donald Trump - in which I use this topic to start our Controversial Race Relations Topics to Discuss and Debate. Since this is a very hotly-debated and controversial topic to discuss among my college students, I give my students an opportunity to present their perspectives -- PRO vs CON -- as to whether they feel it is their RIGHT to protest the President or it's un-American to protest President Donald Trump. Surprisingly, this issue became a part of the larger discussion when the President actually visited our campus during the summer of 2019! In order to maintain civility in the classroom however, I allow students to present their perspectives and then I follow-up with my potential solution. After you listen to this podcast show, if you AGREE or DISAGREE with my potential solutions, please email me at: ejb678@gmail.com. As with all of my podcast shows, I welcome a Professional, RESPECTFUL discussion of this very sensitive and politically-polarizing issue. Yet this is a very TEACHABLE opportunity for all whether you are a college student or not.

This is Show #15 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Controversial Race Relations Topics to Discuss and Debate - in which I change direction in my podcast shows so that we can examine more of the controversial, highly-polarizing topics related to race and ethnic relations. In this show, I share with you the reasons why it is so important to have a healthy debate about these issues and many more simply because this is the time in most college students' lives in which you are professionally-able to state your opinion FOR or AGAINST a particular topic without any major ramifications from sharing your opinion. I also highlight the various DEBATE topics from my book and emphasize the potential solution to each controversial issue. So please take some extra time to listen to this particular podcast show and send me your opinion about it or a new potential topic that you would like me to DEBATE and present a SOLUTION at ejb678@gmail.com.  Again, I welcome your FEEDBACK!

Here is Show #14 - Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus - Selfies Impact on Improving Race Relations -  in which I talk about how the simple "Selfie" that many students take each day, can actually help to improve race relations on their campus. The lasting impact of a Selfie for college students is unthinkable yet in time, each college student will seriously think about how their Selfie with another person of a different racial/ethnic background made them feel "good" at that moment in time. So PLEASE SEND ME YOUR SELFIE at: ejb678@gmail.com so I can share with the world how college students today and in the future getting along with each other on their individual respective college and university!

 This is SHOW #13 and it highlights a FUN CLASS EXERCISE ON RACE that I actually do in my college classes! In this show, I talk about the opportunity for college students to actually have fun and learn about about other racial populations from their peers in class. Although it's challenging at first, by the end, my students truly enjoy talking about and writing about the various cultural traditions, customs, and patterns that they know about each other groups. Sometimes they share the most STEREOTYPICAL attributes and other times they share detailed cultural traditions!! Again, my students have a lot of fun in this exercise. If you want to share some of YOUR cultural traditions, traits, and patterns, please send me an email at: ejb678@gmail.com. After listening to this show, let me know more about your cultural traditions, patterns and traits so that ALL OF US CAN LEARN SOMETHING NEW and HAVE FUN!!

This is SHOW #12 - LIVE STREAM - in which I complete my FIRST full LIVE STREAM SHOW on Podbean platform. In this show, I talked about the POSITIVE OUTCOMES of Good Race and Ethnic Relations for college students. Major issues that I highlighted were: 1. Cultural Relativism, 2. Enculturation, 3. Food, 4. Music, 5. Pop Culture - Social Media - 6. Slang terms - Language! Every college student who wants to interact and engage with other college students who happen to look different than you, these are some simple suggestions on how to get out of your comfort zone and meet other college students on your campus! Send me an email if you have OTHER SUGGESTIONS at: ejb678@gmail.com . Thank you for listening to my FIRST LIVE STREAM PODCAST SHOW!

Here is a TEST LIVE STREAM SHOW for my "Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus Podcast Show." You can hear how I test my microphone, the arrangement of the show general topics as well as some of the audio sounds that I may use in future live shows. This is a brand new opportunity to get LIVE FEEDBACK from college students across the United States so that's why I am creating this new LIVE STREAM PODCAST SHOW!

This is SHOW #11 and it highlights the POSITIVE and GOOD outcomes from developing friendships with individual college students who look different than you. Since this is the beginning of a new academic year throughout the United States, I talk about the EXCITEMENT and ENTHUSIASM among college students as they experience new friendships and new opportunities throughout their academic career. Beginning your academic year and career by reaching out to individuals who look different than you will dramatically increase your chances for academic, professional and personal enrichment not only through your college career but also through your professional career.

This is SHOW #10 and it is the MOST DIFFICULT PODCAST SHOW THAT I HAVE HAD TO DO!! This is the weekend of the Mass Shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio. Initially, I was going to talk specifically about my basic concepts of Race and Ethnic Relations from my 2018 book, "Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus: Understanding, Empowerment, and Solutions for College Students," but the events of this weekend made me talk about these national troubling, sad, and horrific events in our United States of America. I am particularly connected to these issues because I have LIVED in Texas (1988-1990) and born AND raised in Ohio. So take a few minutes out of your busy day and listen to my podcast show so that we can SOMEHOW make this a teachable moment in time.

This is SHOW #9 and it focuses on U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar - the victim - of the SEND HER BACK chant from President Trump's rally in North Carolina. In this show, I review some of her early political career activities in Minnesota particularly the policies and issues that she supports and stands for. My early takeaway from her young political career is - "She makes things Happen!" This show is designed to learn more about her political stance and share to the listening world so that we all can be BETTER informed and not judge folks by the color of their skin, their faith, or country of origin. Check it out and let me know what you think! 

This is SHOW #8 and it follows up from the event that reached national news at a President Trump's campaign event in which the crowd chanted -- SEND HER BACK!

This is SHOW #7 and it discusses the race and ethnic relations issues during a recent national political rally at President Trump's event held in Greenville, NC. Apparently, a chant from the audience - SEND HER HOME - was directed at a Congresswoman in the democratic party. I discuss the issue as politically-correct as possible and state my opinion about the controversial remarks. This is an issue that we can no longer avoid to discuss, debate, and arrive at solutions. I have also talked about these issues in my 2018 book, "Race and Ethnic Relations on Campus: Understanding, Empowerment, and Solutions for College Students. This is a very TEACHABLE moment for EVERYONE!

This is SHOW #5 and it focuses on the national discussion of REPARATIONS! During the summer 2019, the U.S. Congress is holding hearings on the issue of REPARATIONS for African Americans. I discuss this issue and state that it is about time! I actually wrote about REPARATIONS in a previous 2010 book entitled, "The Cultural Rights Movement: Fulfilling the Promise of Civil Rights for African Americans." This is a very politically-charged and controversial issue which needs serious discussion. Check out this podcast - it gets lively!!

This book responds to the often loud debates about the place of Muslims in Western Europe by proposing an analysis based in institutions, including schools, courts, hospitals, the military, electoral politics, the labor market, and civic education courses. The contributors consider the way people draw on practical schemas regarding others in their midst who are often categorized as Muslims. Chapters based on fieldwork and policy analysis across several countries examine how people interact in their everyday work lives, where they construct moral boundaries, and how they formulate policies concerning tolerable diversity, immigration, discrimination, and political representation. Rather than assuming that each country has its own national ideology that explains such interactions, contributors trace diverse pathways along which institutions complicate or disrupt allegedly consistent national ideologies. These studies shed light on how Muslims encounter particular faces and facets of the state as they go about their lives, seeking help and legitimacy as new citizens of a fast-changing Europe.Christophe Bertossi is Director of the Centre for Migrations and Citizenship at the French Institute for International Relations in Paris.

"Canada is a land of immigrants" is a phrase we hear often. And while that is certainly true in many ways, immigration is a complex issue we don't spend nearly as much time talking about as we should. Michael Haan is Canada Research Chair in Immigration and Ethnic Relations at Western University in London, Ontario, and he spends a lot of time thinking about immigration in Canada, especially rural Canada. I had an opportunity to talk to Dr. Haan last fall. This is a part of that conversation.
