Bringing Back Shame featuring Corrin Dixon

In the latest episode of the Afrocentric podcast, Bringing Back Shame featuring Corrin Dixon, Morgan and Corrin explores the relationship between shame and responsibility politics in the black community. She discusses the origins of respectability politics and its initial purpose to advance the black community, as well as key figures such as W.E.B. Du Bois. Morgan and Corrin argue that we should bring back shame, as we are currently a very shameless generation and the social climate is very anti-shame. She believes that shame is the clause in the social contract that keeps you from utter foolishness. Morgan has generated a list of things that conscious, empowered black people should be aware of, and if they were to participate, they should be ashamed of themselves. The episode provides a thought-provoking discussion on the role of shame in the black community and its potential benefits.
