I also didn't know that Malcolm X taught himself to read in Prison]]> 2019-08-04 04:11:23 UTC https://padlet.com/j_ison1/ek2dvujm1njp/wish/373153338 https://padlet.com/j_ison1/ek2dvujm1njp/wish/373157362 Perhaps the blacks are subject to white mans version of authority and containment. This could be a fundamental reality today even though it's been hundreds of years since the dispossession of aboriginal land or the enslavement of African slaves in America. ]]> 2019-08-04 06:25:58 UTC https://padlet.com/j_ison1/ek2dvujm1njp/wish/373157362 https://padlet.com/j_ison1/ek2dvujm1njp/wish/373240210 I've listened to a few episodes now, I find the podcast really interesting, its also free on Apple podcasts.
