episode 20: the conditioning (Society's Conditioned Views about the Black Man Experience)

How Coronavirus Saved My Life

Feb 13 2022 • 56 mins

My open conversation with fellow podcaster Willie Porter from The Thing About Us podcast about his experience as a American Black Man living in Kentucky.

Topics we discussed and explored:

  • Willie’s experience and frustrations during the Breonna Taylor protests
  • Why he says “Kings and Queens” instead of the N-word
  • Conditioning of my racist father, my family's genealogy book with lists of slaves and prices
  • Exploring why white people are uncomfortable talking about the history of slavery
  • Why it’s important for Willie’s step-son Zion to learn about black history
  • Willie’s feelings about not being able to know his lost family history
  • How every black man has a different struggle just as any other man
  • What his own personal struggle was growing up as black man and what he had to teach himself
  • His thoughts on Society’s Conditioned view of the black man aggression
  • Exploring why some people might view someone as aggressive
  • Soul Food
