Weathering 400 Years of Racism
Manage episode 356007419 series 3273727
On this episode of Dismantling Injustice, Carl speaks with Tosca Davis and Cedrick Smith, founders and co-CEOs of TO BE US Productions - a Black-owned production company with a mission to elevate Black stories. They discuss the physical impact of racism on the body (aka weathering) and the power of turning towards one another through storytelling to acknowledge this pain.
Note: Tosca and Cedrick use their childhood photos rather than traditional head shots because they feel that these images best represent who they were before they were socialized and fully impacted by a racist, broken society. Carl joined the TO BE US team in this practice for this week's episode.
