In this episode we go down the forbidden pathway of "systemic racism." Hopefully we're getting closer to establishing a nomological network of cumulative evidence across disciplines for the idea of critical race theory being harmful to the black community.
1. History of elites and postmodern deconstruction vs. hierarchies.
2. Behavioral psychology, the elephant (unconscious thought/feelings) and rider (conscious thought/reason) analogy based on Haidt's work.
3. Neuroscience, the trolley problem as presented with a racial component and the liberal and conservative mind.
4. Behavioral biology, implicit bias studied by brain scans and the shakey ground the racial component stands on.
5. Population data, showing trends toward getting good vs regression in progress since 2010. Also, comparing those to media narratives since 2010.
We're still getting the hang of this podcasting stuff but hopefully we were clear in our explanations as well wrapping them together to create the bigger picture. We end with the analogy of minority groups being the bullet and those with ulterior motives being the shooter. Don't be the bullet. The bullet never is the same again whether it hits the target or not.
