SUMMARY:The 1619 Project - Episode 2 - Part 2 - A Commentary
DESCRIPTION:I will be watching and commenting on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/thecontrabandwagon) on this brand-new Hulu show based on the 1619 Project by Professor Nikole Hannah-Jones. We already covered episode 1 so we will continue with episode 2! \nI will be pausing to add my commentary and insight throughout watching the first half of the first episode. There are six one-hour episodes in total so you can expect twelve episodes of the show on this series (not necessarily back to back though) \nHere is the show’s description on Hulu: “Hulu’s six-part 1619 Docuseries is an expansion of ‘The 1619 Project’ created by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones and the New York Times Magazine. The series seeks to reframe the country’s history by placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of Black Americans at the very center of our national narrative”

SUMMARY:Conversation Series - Aaron Rabinowitz
DESCRIPTION:During this conversation\, I will talk about race with Aaron Rabinowitz\, secular moral philosopher and educator and host of the podcasts “Embrace the Void” and “Philosophers in Space.” We will talk about his development of race consciousness and CRT in education. Come watch or listen and type your questions and comments in the chat! \n \nAaron’s Bio: Aaron Rabinowitz is a secular moral philosophy educator with 10+ years experience helping students develop their capacities for flourishing and value centered community organizing.

He’s also the host of two educational philosophy podcasts\, Embrace the Void\, and Philosophers in Space which he co-hosts with Thomas Smith. His extended research interests include emerging technologies\, personhood\, conspiracism\, and counterculture memetics.

SUMMARY:Conversation Series - Dr. Sheena Mason
DESCRIPTION:During this conversation\, I will be speaking with Dr. Sheena Mason. Sheena Mason earned her Ph.D. in English literature from Howard University. In August 2021\, she joined the faculty at SUNY Oneonta as an Assistant Professor in English. Her forthcoming book “Theory of Racelessness: A Case For Antirace(ism)” (Summer 2022) presents an alternative philosophy of race and the theory of racelessness\, an analytical and teaching framework for understanding “race” and stopping racism. It also presents a philosophy of race\, culture\, and ethnicity. \nInspired by her theory\, she co-founded Theory of Racelessness\, a consulting firm that helps people use alternative philosophies of race and her theory to achieve truly antiracist outcomes. Her fiscally sponsored nonprofit TOGETHER models and teaches people her theory and helps everyone unify\, heal\, and reconcile. The theory of racelessness helps more people undo racism by undoing the belief in “race.” \nCome join me for this conversation. Type your questions and comments in the chat!

SUMMARY:Conversation Series - Carlen Charleston
DESCRIPTION:During this conversation\, I will talk about race with Carlen Charleston\, founder of the E.R.A.S.E. Race Movement.\nHere is Carlen’s bio from his website: \nFrom the small town in Texas where I grew up\, to the years I spent as a Marine working in and out of the Pentagon and around the world\, from elementary school to the college degree and two Master’s degrees I’ve earned\, I now know that we are in fact all a part of one race. \nThis new reality is gaining traction in a country that has spent the last 300 years arguing with itself; trying to reconcile its founding principles with its actions of slavery\, then Jim Crow segregation and now simple separation. \nA few years ago\, I personally determined that this would be the cause for which I would dedicate my life and that is why I founded the nonprofit organization\, ERASE Races – The American Unity Movement. I believe that we will bring about Unity\, through Service and Love for all mankind. \n\nCome watch or listen and type your questions and comments in the chat!

SUMMARY:Conversation Series - Adrian Lyles
DESCRIPTION:During this conversation\, I will talk about race with Adrian Lyles\, founder of the P.U.L.L. Movement. \nAdrian Lyles is the founder of The P.U.L.L. Movement (People United in Life & Liberty). P.U.L.L. is a nonprofit organization that seeks to educate on the history of race and the deleterious effects this construct has caused in our society. By doing so\, the organization hopes to empower people to be more than they were told\, and encouraged to be the best version of themselves. Along with several other talented people\, Mr. Lyles has utilized various platforms to share the emboldening message that each person has a purpose in life\, and this is not to be reduced to the irrelevant spectrum of their skin color or physical appearances. \nAdrian is an entrepreneur who owns an investment advisory firm among other ventures. He has a passion and a deep belief that financial literacy is the key to upward mobility in America. Lyles promotes that everyone needs to be informed how the financial system operates\, and the longer we focus on proclaiming that skin variations is the primary issue\, people will continue to suffer from poverty and other matters related to financial illiteracy. \nFamily and faith are at the center of Adrian’s motivating inspiration. He has a wife whose skin color is noticeably different than his own. Ensuring that his children understood that they were loved before they were formed in the womb\, has been a propulsion for his daily mission. Teaching his children to reject the classifications and labels cast by society is led by his faith. Having the belief that all mankind are created in the image of God\, forms his view that we are all rather beautiful\, colorful\, humans. \n\nCome watch or listen and type your questions and comments in the chat!

SUMMARY:Conversation Series - Anonymous
DESCRIPTION:During this conversation\, I will be speaking with Ca$h\, an anonymous guest who I actually met in person rather than on social media for once! I like to have convos on race as part of my everyday life experience\, not just as someone creating content for a show. It is through this practice that I encountered Ca$h. We struck up a conversation that eventually led him to say the following phrase: “I had to learn that I was white!” To this day I have not gotten an explanation from him about what that statement meant because I was saving it for you the viewers to hear in real time! It’s all happening here on The Contraband Wagon. \nWe will also discuss Ca$h’s difficult childhood and other difficult topics. You won’t want to miss it! Come join me for this conversation.
