Species Unite
I think you could probably go back and track the stages of grief, probably that is what I went through. But I think if you do it right, you end up at acceptance. And that's where I ended up. And that's not to say that I've fully accepted the idea that the golden toad is extinct. Personally, I do still hold out hope that it could still be out there in those forests." - Trevor Ritland This conversation is with Trevor Ritland, who—along with his twin brother Kyle—authored The Golden Toad . The book chronicles their remarkable journey into Costa Rica’s cloud forest, once home to hundreds of brilliant golden toads that would emerge for just a few weeks each year—until, one day, they vanished without a trace. What began as a search for a lost species soon became something much more profound: a confrontation with ecological grief, a meditation on hope, and a powerful call to protect the natural world while we still can.

We spend a lot of time talking about the effects of whiteness on people of color but it's important to talk about the impact whiteness has on white people. As a construct, whiteness can only benefit some white people. And even the people who benefit materially are harmed in terms of connection, sympathy, and the demand that you reject your own culture for the monoculture of whiteness. Dr. Jonathan Metzl lays out the material ways white people are harmed by their commitment to an ideology that shortens their lives and shrinks their wallets. An association that doesn't serve them yet is somehow worth dying for. This book gets into data and psychology and evolutionary biology and behavioral neuroscience and trying to figure out precisely what it is that drives people toward a construct that ends in harm.

Welcome back to White Homework! I want to break down some of the common racist myths that exist in western culture. This week: DRUGS! Let's use address one of the most common racist tropes in US culture: conflating problematic drug use with Black people. Data shows racial groups largely use recreational drugs at the same levels but you certainly wouldn't know that by turning on the news or watching a movie that's come out, well, basically ever. But there's something we need to unpack when we talk about self-medicating. While Black people don't use drugs more than anyone else, and aren't predisposed to drug use because of our culture (or whatever nonsense they blame on us these days), people who have experienced trauma are predisposed to not wanting to feel trauma . That's a biological norm. Humans have been self-medicating for as long as we know humans have been around. My argument isn't that self-medicating doesn't cause harm. The argument is that harm reduction isn't even the goal. And that's a problem.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedHey y'all! Had a great conversation with Blake Chastain several months ago about the slow merging of evangelicalism and nationalism. We're currently watching evangelicalism in the US move from being a religious or spiritual identifier to a political identifier. For those of us who grew up in white evangelical spaces this isn't surprising. After the election of Barack Obama, white evangelical churches began closing ranks much faster than they had been before. In the 90s and 00s, there was a more room for liberal believers in white evangelical spaces but as the culture wars began to heat up with the election of the first Black (and, according to 25% of Republicans, secret Muslim) president, political "purity tests" became much more frequent. Check out Blake's work!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedTaking a little break from our "racism doesn't exist" series to talk to Jo Luehmann about justice, joy, liberation, and accountability. I reached out to her originally because I am obsessed with her work around decolonizing theology. As a nonbeliever, we have nothing (to my knowledge) on the matters of joy and liberation for all people. But these are some of our shared values so I knew I had to chat with her. We had an amazing discussion and Jo blew my mind on several occasions, as she does. :) You can follow Jo on all the things.

Happy Black History Month! This week we're starting a new series! We're calling this one "Racism Doesn't Exist" since so many white Americans believe that racism ended with MLK. So we're diving into the data and examining the disparities that exist between white people and Black people in every area of society. This week we're talking about the treatment of nonwhite patients in the medical field.

Contrary to popular belief, Black Americans are more socially conservative on average, than their white peers. We are more likely to believe in God, attend church regularly, and most of us believe that hard work is it takes to succeed. Shocker, huh?

Alice Hamilton and I sat down to discuss the attempted takeover of the Capitol in DC. A note of caution: language is terribly important . Alice and I use the term "coup" as a catchall throughout this episode to refer to the events that occurred in Washington DC on January 6th, 2021. With that said, I don't know how precise it is to refer to this event as a coup. For starters most (operative word!!) of the duck dynasty delegation had absolutely no plan other than to get inside the building. They didn't have a list of demands. They just wanted to break stuff and take selfies. Crimes for sure but that hardly qualifies as an attempted coup. Obviously there were plenty of malicious actors with boatloads of ammunition, and about a dozen bombs (though only two were placed). All this to say I have no idea what to call what transpired. I have taken to calling it the Saltine Siege because I saw that somewhere, it's funny, and it kinda fits. On a more serious note, I'm still reading, listening, researching and I'm sure our language will evolve as more of the pieces fall into place.

Alice and I decided to tackle something that's become a huge part of the national narrative: why have cops at all? We have pretty clear data that policing does not work. Policing is a net negative for communities, but it's also bad for the officers themselves. "Slavery didn't work either. It costs money. It costs lives. We have all this information and all this data, and we don't use it." "Warrior Mindset" police training . Police unions in the US . Police Clearance Rates . SCOTUS ruling that cops have no obligation to protect or serve . Prisons syphon blue voters into red counties Policing isn't the most dangerous job Police mistreatment of assault victims Sexual assault complaints again police officers Police officers are rarely charge with murder . For context: healthcare workers get assaulted A LOT . They manage to not shoot anyone though.…
