Between Barack and a Hard Place: Challenging Racism, Privilege and Denial in the Age of Obama [View all]



Uploaded on Apr 7, 2010

Celebrated anti-racism activist Tim Wise, author of Between Barack and a Hard Place: Challenging Racism, Privilege and Denial in the Age of Obama, will appear at Villanova University March 29 to share his insights and wit, and to issue challenging calls to action.

I also posted another video with Tim Wise in V&MM and AA:

White Privilege, Racism, White Denial & The Cost of Inequality




...Tim Wise 'gets it.' I've posted his words several times at DU with mixed responses. I don't know how anyone could disagree with him. The facts are so obvious...

I saw reports that communities of color are the ones doing worst in the water crisis in West Virginia. This has been going on for so long, so much that environmental justice advocates always find it in play.

The cause of troubles in the AA community is systematic, I've seen it all my life. It was blatant and in the past it was discussed in the media, but now nothing is said.
