In Search of Black Power
In Search of Black Power challenges conventional narratives around Black policy, Black movements, and Black Life. We focus on creating a new language to discuss the issues presenting Black America, with a focus on independent institutional building and seeing Black folks as the solutions to our own problems.
In Search of Black Power
Is the "left" actually addressing urban gun violence? (Part 1)
Previous conversations have addressed how the progressive mainstream is failing to offer effective solutions to urban gun violence. In this follow-up episode, Lawrence and Dayvon address some of the reasons why these limitations exist.
They’ll be discussing the nature of the left and what are the ideological and structural reasons why in-depth solutions to gun violence in the Black community get subsumed by more generic universal, long-term solutions to inequality.
The left's failure to address Black community's immediate material needs for security and self-determination is exposed to be a critical reason why working-class Black voters seem reluctant to vote for leftist candidates.
