The Race Thing

What's that thing called when......This week, Tori & Heena get behind the camera and open up the floor to Bella Hawkins & Jazmine Paxon. Jazmine is usually behind the scenes, making sure everything flows perfectly for TRT, but this time, she's front and center as she has a conversation with Bella about their perspective and experiences being two Biracial Black women.  Thank you both for being vulnerable with us and sharing your story. We appreciate your authenticity and your joy!

What’s that thing called when climate justice becomes a Civil Rights issue? Racial justice is climate justice. We all have to interact with our surroundings but even with our environment, communities who suffer the most are BIPOC. We can’t go without seeing the very literal visual disparity in where POC live in the U.S. While BIPOC communities contribute to the least amount of environmental change, these communities suffer the most at the hands of environmental injustice. Listen in to our conversation with Wandra Williams and Hope Clark as we talk about what can we do fight back and create a chance for the future.

What’s that thing called literacy leaves behind Black and Brown youth? The Race Thing? Yeah, that’s it. Needle’s Eye Academy is a non-profit organization focused on literacy among Black and Brown youth in Talbot County.

We have to recognize our history in order to understand the importance of literacy for Black Americans.   Black people's literacy threatened a major justification of enslavement. Black people were considered “less than human, permanently illiterate and dumb.” which would be disproven if Black Americans were educated and would undermine the logic of the system. In April 1831, Virginia declared teaching free Black Americans to read or write was illegal. New codes also outlawed teaching enslaved people. In 1833, Alabama law further created barriers for education of black people stating- “any person or persons who shall attempt to teach any free person of color, or slave, to spell, read, or write, shall upon conviction thereof of indictment be fined in a sum not less than $250.” Literacy promotes thought and critical thinking which raises the consciousness. It helps you to get outside of your own cultural constraints and think about things from a different angle. It empowers people.  In 2018, the percentage of Black students who lived in households where the highest level of education attained by either parent was a bachelor’s or higher degree was 27% compared with 69% of Asian American students and 53% of white students. We still have a lot to work to do, and this why we keep bringing up conversations that shed light on different social issues.
