The on-going discussion of racism has historically been contentious yet necessary one in order to bring about change for the rights and liberties of millions of Americans. The present times we are living in bring to light how critical it is to continue the social justice movement and a key part of the work is engaging in transformative dialogue that challenges us all to grow, introspectively and externally as human beings living in an unequal world. The Race Relations Podcast wishes to be a tool for those seeking to gain knowledge, empathy, and perspective by viewing race-based discussions with experts in the field, those effected by racism, and even those who are attempting to figure out where they stand in trying to figure this complex and structured system and how they should act in the midst of it. All Race Relations content curated and designed by psychologist Kaleb Sinclair, MA.

What is a culturally responsive teacher? What does it take to become a culturally responsive teacher? 

In this episode host Kaleb Sinclair sits down with Isabel Lynons, an experienced teacher who comes from a Nicaraguan backgroud with years of experience creating her own formula to an inclusive classroom space. This episode features information for teachers attempting to learn new tips as well as teachers looking for an multilingual informed approach. 

Isabel's Bio: The focus of my career has been in the education field for the past seven years. I received my bachelor's in early childhood and family studies, a minor in Spanish, and a Masters in Teaching all at the University of Washington. During my time studying I focused my practice on trauma informed practices, resilience, longitudinal studies of early childhood trauma, and working in communities with historically marginalized people groups. I began my teaching journey working in early childhood and seeing how integral & formative the early years of a child's life are, then moved to teaching in a dual language school at the elementary level where I am able to serve a linguistically and culturally diverse student body & community.

What is the difference betweeen individual autonomy and individual responsibility? How have these issues played a role in sustaining systemic systems of racism and other oppressive practices? In this episode I sit down with Dr. James Norris to discuss the breakdown of racism through the lens of autonomy and responsibilty. Together we endeavor to create clarity on these topics and what people can do to navigate their own personal choice and the will to act for people or serve themselves.   

In this episode viewers meet Dr. Horton, clinical psychologist and program director of the Master's in Psychology Department at Seattle University. Dr. Horton and I explore the spectrum of human behavior regarding moral disengagement and moral agency, examining how individual and collective choices can either lead to dehumanization or influence practices of compassion and hope. (Part 1 of this episode due to technical issues was sadly lost.)

In this episode viewers will meet Evanni Roberson, a BIPOC teacher with her Masters in Education. Evanni and I sit down to explore diverse avenues of education reform and her own personal insights as a teacher graduating from a program that teaches anti-racist curriculum.

In this episode viewers meet Gene, a Black community member married to a white identifying police officer, I sit down to talk about the complexities of their relationship and policing in America. This episode was recorded in 2020, after the murders of Breonna Taylor and Jacob Blake and thought to be the first episode of Season one.

In this episode you will meet Riley Taylor, head pastor of Calvary Fellowship Christian church. We will engage in dialogue surrounding the intersection of historical racism, God, and reconditioning moral responsibilty.
