Welcome back to the Cape Fear Rundown. Rachel has been reporting on the removal of Stamped: Racism, Antiracism and You for over a year now, and talks to us about how it's been, and the piece she turned for national NPR. Then Ben joins us to talk about how New Hanover county's GOP is struggling to agree on things.

On this episode of The Newsroom: how one parent's efforts to remove a single book from a New Hanover County school curriculum became a proxy for the culture wars.In a five-hour hearing, both sides argued the fate of Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You. It's a book based on the work of Ibram X. Kendi — but the debate went way beyond this one book, and said a lot about our current political moment and the state of public education.To unpack this story, we're joined by WHQR's Rachel Keith, who has been covering the debate over Stamped for months.

On the Amanda Seales Show podcast, several topics were discussed in the recent episode. One of the topics was about the Alabama education director who was fired over a "Woke" book. The book in question was "Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You" by Ibram x. Kendi and Jason Reynolds, which discusses the history of racism in the United States. The education director was fired for allegedly promoting critical race theory, which has been a controversial topic in recent years.Another topic discussed on the podcast was about the revelation that the rapper “Pras" of Fugees fame was actually an FBI informant. This news has caused quite a stir in the hip-hop community, as many people are questioning the ethics of using informants in criminal investigations.The podcast also touched on the controversy surrounding rapper Rick Ross, who was criticized for dissing CNN anchor Don Lemon in an online viral video. Many people felt that Ross was being disrespectful towards Lemon by offering him a job at wing stop to make “lemon” peppered wings. Finally, the podcast acknowledged the passing of legendary musician and civil rights activist Harry Belafonte. Belafonte was a pioneer in the music industry and used his platform to fight for social justice and equality. The hosts of the Amanda Seales podcast paid tribute to his legacy and impact on the world.FOLLOW ALONG AS WE COVER: (03:46) BLACKURATE NEWS: Alabama Education Director Ousted Over Book That Governor Says Is Too Woke (09:18) Pras FBI Informant (12:29) Plus The Group Chat…Are We Asking The Right Questions When Meeting Potential Mates (16:39) How Black Do You Feel Today (19:56) BLACKURATE NEWS: President Joe Biden Announces His 2024 Presidential Run Alongside VP Kamala Harris (27:56) Rick Ross Gettin Dragged For Dissing Don Lemon (31:34) BIG UP -  Colin Kaepernick Pays For Autopsy Of Inmate Eaten By Bed Bugs LET DOWN - Akron Police Stealing Cars And Arresting Children Protesting The Murder Of Unarmed Black Man.

This episode marks the beginning of a new IMKC series called Author Talks, where host Kimberlé Crenshaw sits down with the authors of books banned by anti-CRT legislation. They break down why the featured author's work is so crucial to an understanding of America's racial history, and why its opponents have labeled the work's subject matter as forbidden knowledge. On this episode, Kim is joined by Ibram X. Kendi, founding Director of Boston University Center for Anti-Racist Research, and the youngest winner of the National Book Award for his non-fiction work Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America. They discuss the importance of talking to kids about racism, and unpack the fear-mongering around Kendi's critically acclaimed books about racism for kids, including Stamped: Racism, Anti-racism, and You, and Stamped (For Kids), both co-authored by Jason Reynolds. These vital books have been challenged or pulled from school libraries across the country.

Tell us what you think of the mini-series in our Facebook group.   Welcome to the third part of our five part series on what Sarah found antithetical to living a mentally, physically and spiritually healthy life. She shares deeply with her experiences both lived, read and researched and how they were completely opposite of what the LDS church professed to be about. These issues are massive, world reaching and beyond any borders. They were unacceptable and kept her from growing into what she felt was her best self for her family, her community both local and far beyond.    Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man https://www.amazon.com/Uncomfortable-Conversations-Black-Man/dp/B08BG5QLW5/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3BIBXKLSN33JV&keywords=uncomfortable+conversations+with+a+black+man&qid=1668106607&sprefix=uncomfortabl%2Caps%2C689&sr=8-1   Mark Twain, The Innocents Abroad / Roughing It https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/1716-travel-is-fatal-to-prejudice-bigotry-and-narrow-mindedness-and-many    Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You: A Remix of the National Book Award-winning Stamped from the Beginning https://www.amazon.com/Stamped-Antiracism-National-Award-winning-Beginning/dp/0316453692/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2L4UXOEM4Z4GT&keywords=stamped&qid=1668114638&sprefix=stampe%2Caps%2C592&sr=8-1   In 1977, apostle Boyd K.

One of the things I've come to believe during the now 10-year journey of Good Life Project is that there truly is no individual good life, without there also being a more collective and inclusive path for a societal good life. We are all interconnected. And a key part of this more expansive aspiration is about planting seeds, starting with younger generations. So, how do you raise kids to create a more equitable and inclusive society? One where we're not afraid to acknowledge and discuss beautiful experiences, while also addressing hard truths in a way that steeps us in reality, invites everyone into the conversation, and compels us to do the work needed to create more possibility, equality and opportunity for all, regardless of race, socio-economic status, religion, age, ability and beyond?That's where we're headed with today's guest, Dr. Ibram X. Kendi. He's the Andrew W. Mellon Professor in the Humanities at Boston University, founding director of the BU Center for Antiracist Research, a contributing writer at The Atlantic, CBS News racial justice contributor, and the host of the Be Antiracist podcast. Dr. Kendi is also the author of many highly acclaimed books including Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America, which won the National Book Award for Nonfiction, making him the youngest-ever winner of that award. He has also produced five straight #1 New York Times bestsellers, including How to Be an Antiracist, Antiracist Baby, and Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You, co-authored by Jason Reynolds. In 2020, Time magazine named Dr. Kendi one of the 100 most influential people in the world. He was awarded a 2021 MacArthur Genius Grant. And his new book, How to Raise An Antiracist, take us into the core ideas around bringing kids up - as caretakers, parents, educators and community members - in a way that opens their minds, hearts and eyes to both our history and to the work still to be done to decrease inequality and increase equality.You can find Ibram at: Website | Instagram | Be Antiracist PodcastIf you LOVED this episode you'll also love the conversations we had with Austin Channing Brown inviting all to play a part in creating a more equal and inclusive society.Check out our offerings & partners: My New Book Sparked | My New Podcast SPARKEDVisit Our Sponsor Page For a Complete List of Vanity URLs & Discount Codes.AquaTru: $100 off + free shipping.

Stamped: Racism, Antiracism and You by Jason Reynolds and Ibram X. KendiRace, in America, is a complicated and divisive subject. How can we talk about it, if we don't exactly know how it all came about, and where so many of the ideas we still believe today actually had their origins?  When we look back at the history of enslaved people in our country, how is it that so many beliefs that were started hundreds of years ago to justify this horrific economic machine are still around, over 150 years after the abolition of the official practice?Hopefully, you've heard of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X, but what about W.E.B. Du Bois and Angela Davis? And did you know that the guy who played a big part in the Salem Witch Trials, also played a huge role in shaping how people who lived in the colonies viewed people who were black and the ideas about enslaving people? My guess is you didn't, and neither did I – at least about Cotton Mather – the Salem Witch guy. Even the movies you might have grown up with helped to reinforce many of the ideas that are centuries old, and still have tremendous power to this very day.Recommended for grades 7 and up.

He's driven by compassion and the clear-eyed honesty that the young both possess and demand of the rest of us. Ibram X. Kendi chose him to write the YA companion to Stamped from the Beginning. In his person, Jason Reynolds both embodies and inspires innate human powers of fortitude and imagination. Hear him on “breathlaughter”; the libraries in all of our heads; and a stunning working definition of anti-racism: “simply the muscle that says humans are human… I love you, because you remind me more of myself than not.”Jason Reynolds was appointed National Ambassador for Young People's Literature by the Library of Congress in January, 2020. His body of writing about what it is to be a Black young person growing up in the U.S. has been received as a godsend by teachers and librarians — including the award-winning Ghost, Long Way Down, and Look Both Ways. His most recent work of nonfiction, together with Ibram X.

He's driven by compassion and the clear-eyed honesty that the young both possess and demand of the rest of us. Ibram X. Kendi chose him to write the YA companion to Stamped from the Beginning. In his person, Jason Reynolds both embodies and inspires innate human powers of fortitude and imagination. Hear him on “breathlaughter”; the libraries in all of our heads; and a stunning working definition of anti-racism: “simply the muscle that says humans are human… I love you, because you remind me more of myself than not.”Jason Reynolds was appointed National Ambassador for Young People's Literature by the Library of Congress in January, 2020. His body of writing about what it is to be a Black young person growing up in the U.S. has been received as a godsend by teachers and librarians — including the award-winning Ghost, Long Way Down, and Look Both Ways. His most recent work of nonfiction, together with Ibram X. Kendi, is Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You.Find the transcript for this show at onbeing.org.This show originally aired on June 25, 2020.

Today, Dom Giordano led off by giving a nation-wide update on educational issues during Coronavirus. First, Giordano discusses a story in the New York Post, which examines the link between CDC guidelines and the American Federation of Teachers. According the Post, the AFT lobbied the CDC on, and even suggested language for, the federal agency's school-reopening guidance released in February. Then, Giordano discusses the decision by Parents Magazine to promote a book that's based on Critical Race Theory, titled Stamped (for Kids), an abridged remix of Ibram X. Kendi's best-selling Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You, a young adult book that laid the groundwork for Critical Race Theory. Then, Giordano discusses the continued reaction on the Left to last week's State of the Union rebuttal by Tim Scott, playing back MSNBC's Tiffany Cross, who called Scott names such as a ‘token' and a ‘clown' who dances for Mitch McConnell. Also, throughout the hour, Dom asks listeners and his producers for people who are wise, as today is the birthday of famous philosopher Machiavelli.

Many parents, especially white parents may feel uncomfortable about knowing the right way to start a conversation with your children regarding race.   Before you decide to have these important conversation with your children you may want to ask yourself a few questions. 1).  Do you know and own your own biases?Let your children know and see you acknowledge and face your bias.We're less likely to pass on the biases we identify and work to overcome.Give your child an example of a bias, racial or otherwise, that you hold or have held. Share with your child things you do to confront and overcome that bias.2).  Do you celebrate diversity in your everyday life?Many parents may be tempted to teach their children to be "color blind" or actually shy away from acknowledging differences however all of differences, skin color, genetic makeup and culture, should be celebrated, not ignored.    Do you model your belief with your words?   Do you show respect and understanding with someone that doesn't look like you?  How diverse is your circle of friends?  When was the last time you invited a black/brown person to social event with you, out to dinner (before COVID).  How can you widen your family circle to include others that don't look like you?3).  How are you educating yourself on racism? Study and talk about the histories and experiences of  Black people, Asian Americans, Indigenous Peoples.Make sure you understand that every racial and ethnic group includes people who believe different things and behave in different ways . There is as much diversity within racial groups as across them.For me my education began simply by having friends outside my race, dating outside my race which then ultimately lead me to becoming even more educated on Racism by reading many books and listening to podcasts on racism and  understanding our true history.  Additionally I took several workshops with Racial Equity Institute  out of Greensboro which was literally the most enlightening workshops I have ever taken.   4).  Are you talking about racism? Although this is a sensitive subject, it still exists and while some forms of racism are subtle comments and or prejudice many are outright hatred and violence.  Just because you aren't talking about it doesn't mean its not happening.5).  Are talking to your Co-Parent/Partner?Co-Parents need to talk among themselves about race and racism and what their experiences have been, and what they want their relationship to be and what they want their family to be.  Talking about race and racism between co-parents is critical to raising children that know and understand race and racism,  It will go a long way in breaking the cycle of systematic racism.Resources:https://www.healthline.com/health/parenting/anti-racism-resources-for-parents-and-kidshttps://www.essence.com/entertainment/childrens-books-racism/https://www.sceneonradio.org/seeing-white/https://www.racialequityinstitute.com/ Antiracist Baby board book, and co-author of the Stamped: Racism, Antiracism and You for young adults, has recently appeared on a number of podcasts such as Unlocking Us  - Ibram X.

EP 13: Beyond Black and White Part 2: What are WE telling our CHILDREN? After our last episode we decided to do 2 more installments of Beyond Black and White. https://anchor.fm/onestepfurther/episodes/Episode-12-Beyond-Black--White-A-mixed-Couples-Discussion-on-Recent-Events-wSpecial-Guest-Alexis-Arnold-ef55t5 With the recent uptick in the anti-racism movement we are getting a lot of questions like “what are you telling your kids;” “what are your kids saying;” “what are you showing your kids.” So we decide to sit down with our children and another mixed family to hopefully answer some of these, shed some light and share some stories. We cover so much from not being afraid, to respecting human life, to whether or not a daughter still wants to be a police officer. We covered a lot but not nearly as much as we would of liked or could have. Don't miss a beat because we ABSOLUTELY know you will ENJOY this weeks episode of ONE STEP FURTHER!!! Next Episode I sit down with our Church pastor to get the Christian perspective and the church's reaction to recent events. A little more about the Harley Family: Charlton and Christin Harley are residents of Penfield, NY. They come from two very different parts of NY, Charlton from the inner city of Rochester and Christin from the small town of Hornell, NY. They have known each other for 19 years and have 6 children: Eric (25), Tamara (22), and Tabatha (20) from Charlton's first marriage and CJ (16), Cooper, (13) and Noah (12) from their union together. Charlton served 4 years active duty in the US Navy out of high school and rejoined the Navy as a reservist in 2010. He is currently serving on active duty orders as a recruiter for the Navy. Christin moved to Rochester in 2000 when she began teaching as an elementary school teacher in the West Irondequoit School District and has remained there ever since. - - Suggested books to help build awareness of similarities and differences, racism and an understanding of various cultures for children: We're the Same, We're Different by Sesame Street People by Peter Spier Hidden Figures by Margot Lee Shetterly Let's Talk About Race by Julius Lester A Kids Book About Racism by Jelani Memory Teach Your Dragon About Diversity by Steve Herman - Suggested book for young adults: The Hate You Give by Angie Thomas Suggested books for adults: Stamped: Racism, Antiracism and You by Ibram X.
