In this episode, Dr. Cheryl Thompson and Henry Gomez join me to discuss the correlation between media and our social hierarchy.
Dr. Thompson is an Assistant Professor at Ryerson University, The Creative School. She has authored two books: “Uncle: Race, Nostalgia, and the Politics of Loyalty”, and “Beauty in a Box: Detangling the Roots of Canada’s Black Beauty Culture”. Dr Thompson is also my fellow Cedarbrae Collegiate Alum and former Basketball teammate!
Henry Gomez is an educator, recording artist, entertainer, and life-long learner. He also has a talent for predicting the future. (Many, many, many years ago, before the Kardashians were a thing, he predicted there’d be a market for butt implants!) Henry is also a Cedarbrae Collegiate Alum, having taught there for over a decade.
We discuss the history and evolution of mass media, how our social hierarchy is evolving in the digital age, and of course Bitcoin makes its way into the discussion because it’s difficult to discuss our social hierarchy without talking about money.
