POPULARITY
MY MY MY!!!! This is your host Tre Borden, and I don't know about you but after the last few days, weeks, months and years of so much upheaval and ridiculousness, culminating with last night's nail-biter of an election, I AM TIRED. So many of us have been working tirelessly fighting against racism and inequity, and meanwhile have had to do whatever possible to provide safe environments for our families and communities during a global pandemic. We have created an episode to give you a taste of what meditation and healing looks like alongside some instruction on how to create a practice for yourself. We are so fortunate to have two amazing women of color who are creating more visibility for Black people in the healing industry and who are promoting wellness within the BIPOC communities. Leah Barros and Jazmin Hicks are going to take you through a healing session to relieve stress, reconnect and restore balance as we recuperate from one of the most stressful periods in modern history. They will also provide information on wellness practices and how to build capacity in your life for your own healing and emotional and spiritual vitality.
For much of this podcast we've been focusing on elevating the voices of BIPOC and progressive leaders who understand the daunting but worthwhile task of striving for an equitable society. Given our limited time and resources, and the near constant battle against exhaustion and dismay, it is justifiable to focus one's energy on the people who already understand what needs to be done and leave the people on the other side or who couldn't care less one way or another to their own devices. It is also unfair for BIPOC people, who for so long have shouldered more than their share of the burden in the fight for racial equality to have to endure convincing white people why this is a vital priority for our society. That all being said, we just experienced an election which was a referendum on the direction our country was headed under Trump, and a bewildering 77 million+ people for four more years of his leadership despite all we've seen during this administration. The overwhelming majority of those people are white, and in fact the majority of white people voted for what can arguably be called an unprecedented regression into a divisive, racist and anti-equality America the likes of which we hoped not to see again. What to do? While it is tempting to write those people off as lost causes who don't deserve our time, it is very difficult to imagine a country or a world that has embraced the changes many of us consider essential while so many of us continue to ignore and fight against an appropriate recognition of these issues. Going further, if we want to create a world without racism it is simply impossible to do this without white people being at the center of this transformation. It is very difficult to admit, but there needs to be a significant and successful effort to bring people together, across a seemingly uncrossable chasm of mistrust and disdain, if we have any hope of seeing a better world. To discuss this we invited Aja Davis and Molly Ola Pinney, co founders of the Facebook group White People Doing Something. The interracial couple began the group to engage white people in productive conversations around race and engagement after the George Floyd murder, and it has grown into a very robust group of 40,000 doing daily actions around engaging white people in difficult conversations and giving them the tools to create change in their communities. They discuss their philosophy with host Tre Borden in this week's episode that gives us some food for thought about the many approaches that are necessary to create a world where racism does not exist.
Featured Guests: Bill Borden - US Air Force Pilot and Vietnam Veteran, Tre's Dad Dr. Marsha Hirano - Nakanishi - Retired Vice Chancellor for CSU System, Second generation Japanese-American. 2020 has tested us to the breaking point. Many of us have suffered greatly as a result of the pandemic, and for people of color that suffering has compounded an already cumbersome daily reality that comes with living in a society built upon racism and exploitation. The upcoming election offers some comfort, but also comes with the knowledge that even if the election results in a new president, there is so much work to do to create a society that acknowledges and attempts to correct the moral wrongs that have led to our present calamity. It is exhausting! It is in times like this that we need to truly summon our resilience and ask our elders how they have managed to make it this far and perhaps give us a bit of perspective and context for what's to come. To do that we talked to two incredible people who have seen and experienced so much of the best and worst of America and lived to tell the tale. The first is Bill Borden, host Tre Borden's father, who is a 77 year old Vietnam vet, former Air Force pilot who has a lot to say about this country, why what is happening now is necessary, and why America is still the greatest country on earth; the second is Dr. Marsha Hirano-Nakanishi, the child of Japanese parents who went through internment, who went on to go to Stanford and Harvard on her way to becoming a long-time education administrator as Vice-Chancellor of the CSU system. She is also the mother of Tommy Nakanishi, friend of the podcast and dear friend and social justice warrior based in LA. Both Bill and Marsha have gone through many cycles of progress and chaos in this country, they have both endured the death of their soulmates, and yet, they still have an indomitable and joyful spirit that carries them and offers us a lot to think about as a new generation takes the mantle of building a world that can work for everyone.

Guests: Lauren Cusitello - Legal Director Immigration Justice Project, American Bar Association (ABA) Grisel Ruiz - Supervising Attorney, Immigrant Legal Resource Center. During the last several months with the global pandemic and racial justice movement, not to mention the Presidential race dominating headlines, you might have lost track of the deepening horror that is our immigration system and the crisis it's been in. This crisis did not start with our current administration, but it has taken on more sinister and cruel overtones. Recent whistleblower allegations (which include mass hysterectomies) and legal decisions (easing the deportation of formerly protected immigrants) simply underscore how imperative it is that we pay attention. As we take calls to Defund Police and ICE and reform our needlessly punitive and racist criminal justice system it is also clear how much these movements overlap with immigration and asylum reform. To discuss how we got here, what we're up against we invited to attorneys on the front lines of the crisis advocating for immigrants ensnared in the system as well as the policy changes and community mobilization efforts that are key to reforming this terrible and in humane system. Please tune in and also subscribe to our podcast downloadable wherever you listen to podcasts: What We Gon Do hosted by Tre Borden.
Guests: Taylor Brandon - Founder of No Neutral Alliance; Formerly Staff at SF MOMA Faith Mckinnie - Community Engagement Coordinator - Crocker Art Museum/ Founder of Black Artists Fund Jova Lynne Johnson - Former Curator at MOCAD, Founder of MOCAD Resistance. The art world has not been immune from our country's racial reckoning, and in fact has often been the site of some of the most glaring examples of hypocrisy, tone deafness and systems that support white supremacy. Nowhere has this been more evident than in the culture of some of our most venerated art museums. While many institutions are lately making a public show of collecting notable BIPOC artists and having a more diverse slate of exhibitions, these same institutions often struggle to attract and empower BIPOC employees, resist calls to diversify their boards or appeal to the communities they supposedly serve, which are often in communities that are substantially diverse. Even worse when taken to task for their blind spots and racist practices many of these institutions diminish their credibility further by alienating BIPOC staff and community members who demand change and bungle even the most superficial attempts to prove allyship with anti-racist movements. BIPOC employees face a difficult question of whether or not it's even worth it to change these organizations, so many of which are rooted in white supremacy from within, or just abandon the moment altogether and begin new institutions that serve us. Few can speak to this with sharper clarity or authenticity than our three guests this week, all Black women who have been, or remain, part of major art museums and have spearheaded movements to hold them accountable for their racist policies, actions and leadership and demanded change. Taylor Brandon, Jova Lynne Johnson and Faith McKinnie speak to host Tre Borden about their experiences fighting intransigent museums and what it takes to build movements that can hold them to account while also providing space to empower BIPOC artists and communities.
Guests: Aaron Lambert - Talent Agent and Musical Theater Actor, Hamilton on the West End Nana Mensah, Stage and Screen Actor and Writer based in New York City. With the recent release of Hamilton on streaming services and the current global theater shutdown many are discussing what it means to have more diverse representation on stage and how to reimagine what creative voices theater should elevate. Whether trying to break into the cutthroat world of Broadway in Manhattan or the centuries-old elite theater world of the West End in London it is an uphill battle to make it for anyone let alone BIPOC performers, writers and theater professionals. Despite such obstacles this moment genuinely feels ripe for the hard work and conversations that could lead to real change especially with the emergence of the “We See You White American Theater” movement which demands tangible and radical and lasting change to the industry. To have this discussion, host Tre Borden spoke with Aaron Lee Lambert, performer in Hamilton on the West End and a co-owner of a boutique talent agency in London, and Nana Mensah a writer and performer for screen and television as well as an actor in New York theater.
Guests: Callie Chamberlain, Twin Cities New Leaders Council Ron Harris, Twin Cities New Leaders Council For many of us George Floyd's murder at the hands of police was our first introduction to Minneapolis. With some of the most progressive leadership in the nation when it comes to Local, Regional and National leadership, including the Chief of Police, it represented a community that was “getting it right”. So what went wrong? What led to the death of George Floyd and what will come from it? How has the community responded and what is the way forward? Minneapolis organizers and local leaders Callie Chamberlain and Ron Harris spoke to Tre Borden to give us an overview of a community in crisis, the overwhelming response from community members and organizations to rebuild, and what if any hopes they have for the future.

In a time where Black people especially are suffering and experiencing so much loss and pain, this is an especially timely and poignant conversation.

At the end of 2018, the State of the Art team reflected on how State of the Art could become more inclusive given our own feelings around underrepresentation in the art world. To that end, in 2019 we introduced monthly themes and guest hosting in an effort to bring more voices and diverse art-related topics onto our platform. Today we celebrate having aired 100 episodes!
