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.

SUMMARY:Conversation Series - John Wood Jr.
DESCRIPTION:During this conversation\, I will be speaking with John Wood Jr.\, the National Ambassador for the Braver Angels organization\, a donor-funded organization dedicated to depolarization of American politics through what the website calls “patriotic empathy.” (https://braverangels.org/) I learned of Braver Angels when I suddenly began receiving invitations to their events through my job.

SUMMARY:Conversation Series - Wilfred Reilly
DESCRIPTION:During this conversation\, I will be speaking with Wilfred Reilly\, a college professor and political scientist\, and a former corporate executive\, freedom rider\, law student\, and “poor kid.” He’s also the author of the book “Hate Crime Hoax: How the Left Is Selling a Fake Race War.” I noticed Wilfred’s tweets about race online and figured correctly that he had an interest in having a conversation about our respective views and goals as well as issues related to race. \nWe will discuss our respective mentoring efforts\, which racial gaps people focus on and which they ignore\, slavery around the world versus slavery in America\, the evolution of our respective race consciousness\, and how media plays a role in perpetuating racial tension. Please join us for this discussion. Bring your comments and questions to the chat! \nFollow Wilfred Reilly on Twitter.

SUMMARY:Conversation Series - Jason Klein
DESCRIPTION:During this conversation\, I will be speaking with Jason Klein\, a man who submitted an application to come on the show after finding a lack of substance in the panel discussion I appeared in for the Braver Angels branch off podcast The John Wood Jr. Show.

SUMMARY:Conversation Series - Dr. Mansa Keita
DESCRIPTION:During this conversation\, I will talk about race with Dr. Mansa Keita\, a father\, computer science PhD\, Rastafari\, and chess aficionado who can pump out a mean dad joke. We have communicated on Twitter for some time\, and I’m thrilled to have him on the show to talk about his personal evolution of race consciousness\, Black love (father/son)\, Dave Chapelle\, scientific racism\, the games that “centrists” play regarding race\, and how to get people to learn the truth about racism and white supremacy among many other topics. \nMansa and I have had less than an hour of one-on-one communication time before this conversation\, so you’ll be seeing our authentic connection (whatever that yields). Come watch or listen and type your questions and comments in the chat! \nFollow Mansa on Twitter.
