Basically, Hannah, Jose, or LaKeshia ... I'm Qualified, Nice To Meet Ya.
Manage episode 312027597 series 3150989
This week on The Basically Brown Podcast we are all about Growth & Acceptance.
We kicked off the show by discussing Kyle Kashuv. The Parkland Shooting Survivor who was previously accepted by Harvard has recently lost his chance at attending the Ivy League School due to racist tweets he posted when he was younger. He's since apologized citing surviving the shooting as a major change in his thinking, but Harvard isn't budging. We talked about it, but what do you think? Do people really evolve in thinking ... Or are we to assume that a tiger never changes its stripes?
Hannah, Jose, or LaKeshia ... name association. Do you judge people based on their name alone? A Caucasian woman named Lakeisha feels like she's experienced "The Black Woman" ... But does a name outside of your skin color qualify you to speak on life experience outside of your own?
Brown & Corporate is our main topic this week ... How has things changed? Or have things changed? How can we continue to go up from there? We're talking about our experiences & we'd like to hear yours too.
