Episode 66: 7-25-20

On the show this week Mike and Jason spend a lot of time on the subject of Black Lives Matter. It is inarguable that black lives, of course, matter, and through the history of our country there is no doubt that until the enactment of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, black lives were not honored, nor were they treated as equal.We separate the idea of racism, bigotry, ignorance and hatred that can and will occur in a free society and a government structure that is at the root of it. We dig in and look at the idea that self-awareness, self-acceptance, and personal responsibility are required in a free society, and before any systemic solutions are required, there must be personal awareness; otherwise, we are doomed to the solution of socialism, which never ends well.
