Episode 62: Terry Park PhD

Episode 62: Terry Park PhD

What are the culture, challenges, and contributions of Asian Americans? Why is the model minority myth a tool of anti-blackness?

In this series on healthcare and social disparities, Dr. Jill Wener, a board-certified Internal Medicine specialist, meditation expert, and tapping practitioner, interviews experts and gives her own insights into multiple fields relating to social justice and anti-racism. In this episode, Jill interviews Terry Park PhD, the founder and CEO of Maum Consulting, LLC, an Asian American Studies-based educational consulting business offering JEDHI (justice, equity, diversity, healing, inclusion)-minded online courses, curriculum assistance, and professionalization engagements. They discuss the importance of integrating mind, body, and spirit and how those are disintegrated in the process of assimilation, which causes people to lose access to their ancestral wisdoms. Park expresses how whiteness was a door that he kept hitting but couldn’t open; he realized this when he was a kid and thus avoided everything Asian. Listen as they make the connection between racism and intergenerational trauma.

Dr. Terry Park previously served as a faculty member at seven higher education institutions, including Harvard University, Wellesley College, the University of Maryland, College Park, Miami University, and San Quentin State Prison. Included on the list, “Inspiring Activists: Trailblazers and leaders in the community and in the struggle for social justice” by former San Francisco Supervisor Jane Kim, Terry has participated in several national and community-based Asian American organizations across the U.S., including a stint as Executive Director of Hyphen magazine, an award-winning national print- and web-based publication on Asian American culture, politics, and arts. Raised in San Jose, California, Salt Lake City, Utah, and Seoul, Korea, Terry's free time includes getting to know his new home of Columbus, OH, scaling gym walls and pub menus, learning to make ice cream, and enjoying walks with his spirited mixed-breed rescue puppy, Miles.

Episode 55: Internalized Antisemitism, Privilege, and White Supremacy

Episode 55: Internalized Antisemitism, Privilege, and White Supremacy

What is internalized anti-semitism? What is the difference between white supremacy culture and white nationalism? How can white Jewish people hold space for both their own marginalization and their privilege in our society (which is at the cost of the marginalization of others)? What is the impact of sacrificing aspects of our own culture and identity to get closer to whiteness?

In this series on healthcare and social disparities, Dr. Jill Wener, a board-certified Internal Medicine specialist, meditation expert, and tapping practitioner, interviews experts and gives her own insights into multiple fields relating to social justice and anti-racism. In this episode, Jill discusses her awareness of her own internalized anti-semitism and how it has intersected with her anti-racism journey. She discusses how white American Jewish people can both benefit from white privilege and also be the target of anti-semitism and white nationalism, and how anti-semitism and racism are used by the Christian right in an attempt to hinder partnership between Black and Jewish communities.

Episode 52: Kelly Hurst

Episode 52: Kelly Hurst

What is the importance and impact of a multicultural upbringing?
What is conditional whiteness and what role does it play in the lives of people with multiple racial identities?

In this series on healthcare and social disparities, Dr. Jill Wener, a board-certified Internal Medicine specialist, meditation expert, and tapping practitioner, interviews experts and gives her own insights into multiple fields relating to social justice and anti-racism. In this episode, Jill interviews Kelly Hurst, an anti-racist disruptor and equity strategist. They discuss the importance of being vulnerable and naming mistakes or the ways one has perpetuated systemic racism in order to dismantle it. Hurst explains how dominant culture paved the way for white women to become a danger to society and how it affects people who “look white” being included or excluded from the concept of conditional whiteness.

After spending 23 years in the public education system as a teacher, literacy coach, guidance dean, and assistant principal, Kelly witnessed firsthand how the system helped white students thrive while continuing to marginalize Black students. As a result, Kelly left the education system and started Being Black at School. Kelly is best known as the author of the award-winning blog Mocha Momma, where she chronicles her life as a former teen parent, a birth mom, and a single mother who took her then 3-year old daughter to college with her. Kelly will serve as the founder and executive officer of Being Black at School.

Episode 51: Shame, Women's Health, and Intersectionality

Episode 51: Shame, Women's Health, and Intersectionality

Have you ever felt shame about your body, particularly when something’s not quite right in your female or male sexual organs? How has the patriarchy perpetuated this shame and led to disparities in Black women’s health, and what can be done about it? 

In this series on healthcare and social disparities, Dr. Jill Wener, a board-certified Internal Medicine specialist, meditation expert, and tapping practitioner, interviews experts and gives her own insights into multiple fields relating to social justice and anti-racism. In this episode, Jill discusses her own experiences with shame around women’s health issues, the way the patriarchy perpetuates silence and shame around women’s bodies and women’s health, and how that can lead to adverse health outcomes in our healthcare system for women and, in particular, Black women. 

She discusses the way that racism and bias are baked into the healthcare system, and the importance of healthcare professionals recognizing and owning their biases in order to reverse the inequities in healthcare. She also talks about the concept of intersectionality, a term coined by Dr. Kimberlé Crenshaw, and how that impacts how a person may experience bias and oppression.
