Author Uncut With Patrice Williams Marks

S2. E22. Author Uncut Podcast - Sensitivity Reader Question: Is Calling Someone a "Karen," Racist? (AuthorUncut.com) THIS IS THE LAST EPISODE OF THE SEASON. But first, if you enjoy my podcast, I'd be grateful if you spread the word by leaving a rating and a review. Author Uncut can be found wherever you enjoy listening to your podcasts. Recently while doing a Sensitivity Read, an author asked me if calling someone a "Karen" is a slur or racist. I'll answer that question in this last episode of season 2. So what exactly is a "Karen?" It's a term used to describe a woman, usually a white woman wielding her privilege by approaching a stranger, usually a black man or woman, accusing them of one thing or another. They may have an issue with their kids in a swimming pool, them sitting on a bench, walking through a neighborhood, sleeping in a student lounge, a child selling water on a stoop, a child mowing lawns for money, a family cookout bbq... the list goes on. A KAREN, is calling out someone's outrageous racist behavior. It's another way of calling someone racist. So why are some calling it a slur or racist? Well, number 1, no one likes to be called a racist; especially if they are racists. Number 2, one woman on Twitter called it "class prejudice." That's a new one. Number 3, they feel that they are "victims" of the term and are cast in a bad light. I believe that is exactly what it is intended to do; cast that person and their outrageous behavior in a bad light and to publicly shame.

S2. E17. Author Uncut Podcast: Special Episode on George Floyd, Kaepernick, The Holocaust, Slavery & History of Police Brutality (AuthorUncut.com) YOU MAY FIND THIS EPISODE DISTURBING. This episode was supposed to be another chapter from Counter Punch. But, with what we have seen on television this week, I felt compelled to give an episode to George Floyd and his family. George Floyd was the man who was killed by a Minneapolis police officer (Derek Chauvin) by placing a knee on his neck (with his hands in his pockets) for over eight minutes while George pled for his life. Three other officers were also involved. This episode is more of a stream of consciousness on the subject of police violence and those lost. I have not edited this podcast and am allowing it to run as is. Please note that I have included a clip from ABC's Nightline with Juju Chang reporting that includes graphic audio of the murder of George Floyd. However, that clip lasts less than one minute. In this episode I discuss: - Social injustice and police violence - The George Floyd murder - Philando Castile's murder - Sandra Bland's murder - Eric Garner's murder - Tamir Rice's murder (12 year old murdered by Cleveland police) - Colin Kaepernick and taking a knee - MLK peaceful protests - The Holocaust and Jewish experience - Slavery - NextDoor community - Archie Williams and the Innocence Project (man who was in prison for 36 years before he was exonerated by DNA evidence) and AGT (America's Got Talent) - Deflecting by using black-on-black crime to excuse police violence NOTE: I am so sorry I did not mention Breonna Taylor, an EMT First Responder killed/gunned down in her bed by the police looking for someone they already had in custody.

If so, you've probably seen Law Abiding Citizen, Taken, Flight Plan and The Brave One. Here is what Counter Punch Is About: "Everyone is capable of murder.

S2. E3. Why The French Are Interested in American Sensitivity Reading; Also Blackface Explained (AuthorUncut.com) Today's podcast delves back into Sensitivity Reading and why it intrigues the French. I'll also explain why Blackface is offensive. Mid 2019 I was contacted by a really cool husband and wife team working in Los Angeles for France 24; an international television channel based in France. They were the LA Correspondence for the network and found me after reading a few of my articles online. They asked to interview me in person; which I did. It was an interesting experience as I had never been the focus of a news story before, despite working within the news business. They informed me that there is no such thing as Sensitivity Readers in France, and wanted to get to know more about me, the profession and how why/how I chose to become one ...
