Episode 7 | The Toad Listens: Pain and Perspective | Part Two

Jaron Scott and Matthew McBirth use grace, humor, experience and wisdom to help us better understand what the BLM movement is, and what it isn’t. They walk through a series of common debate questions, covering topics like police brutality, the ethics of rioting, media bias, what systemic racism actually means, and the important difference between racism and indifference. This conversation aims to skip the ‘political’ element of the debate and get to the true heart of it-  helping us better love and understand our black and brown friends and neighbors in Joplin and everywhere. If you’d like to check out more from the toad, scroll through our website at joplintoad.com and keep an eye on our social media to see other upcoming features on this topic. __________________________________________________________If you want to add to the debate points discussed here, you can email your questions or comments to: [email protected].
