The only way to understand this moment is to understand 400 years of systemic injustice.  Today's podcast aspires to that goal but is simply the tip of the iceberg.   This episode is based on a post Matt Busby created and is largely an audio version of that post on Facebook, cataloguing the thesis of Ibram X. Kendi's book "Stamped From The Beginning" that every moment of racial progress in the United States is met but an equal racist backlash that limits or abolishes that progress.   Systemic racism is not about the hatred of one individual toward another but the ways in which our very systems reinforce racist outcomes, divisions, and ideas.
