Affirmative Action, Access, and Opportunity
1h 0m | Jul 13, 2023WHAT WILL THE AUDIENCE LEARN?
The audience will gain insight on the implications of access and opportunity, or lack thereof, to what some consider basic rights.
EPISODE SUMMARY:
President Lyndon B. Johnson said, “Until justice is blind to color, until education is unaware of race, until opportunity is unconcerned with the color of men's skins, emancipation will be a proclamation but not a fact.” Well… justice is not blind. Education is not unaware. Opportunity is not unconcerned. And yet, the Supreme Court recently ruled against affirmative action policies, perpetuating a system that limits access and opportunity for people of color.
Join Rev. Dr. TLC and her returning guest, Erik Clemons who is President and CEO of ConnCAT, as they delve into the complexities, nuances, and mixed messages of dismantling racism. Racism can never be eradicated without looking, deeply and truthfully, at this country’s history and without reconciliation. Until there’s a recognition that its poisonous tentacles reach far beyond people of color, none of us can be free. Listen in and join the conversation!
