S E1193: In Class with Carr, Ep. 196: "What Does It Mean to Belong?"

12/11/2023
The world that Norman Lear curated, including the black world, and the way that black cultural meaning makers like Esther Rolle and John Amos pushed back against him, are a lens for examining the difference between social structures and governance formations in Africana. And after those shows, the genealogy that Norman Lear tapped into, in part to continue an ongoing project of mingling his ethnicity with a fictional American identity, with the framing of Black people as the diminished citizenry, goes a long way toward helping us understand the contempt and pity with which others view us, and with which we so maddeningly and too often view ourselves.

S E1186: In Class with Carr, Ep. 187: Self-Determination in the Silences

10/9/2023
It is Indigenous People’s Day weekend and Amiri Baraka’s birthday. Dr. Carr and Karen discuss self determination. It’s in the Social Structure’s narrative silences that we are able to form our own structures and grow. How do we nurture self-determination and self-sufficiency when the “Master Narrative” enforces silences about those subjects except when we are used as footnotes in its memory and vision? We are showing that we can and do convene in the seams of the Social Structure and in those seams—those silences—we find each other and build.

S E1184: In Class with Carr, Ep. 185: “Who Determines Our Emancipation?”

9/25/2023
It’s the 161st anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation today. Here we are “freer” than ever in the United States and more detached from collective liberation work than ever. Meanwhile, Social Structure convulsions are surging once again (Murdoch’s Fox teetering, mock book burnings in Missouri, Blum now suing West Point over Affirmative Action, etc.). U.S. Feds announce HBCUs owed at least $16 billion (just over the last 30 years) and white nationalist governors are like, “Whatever!” And outside the U.S., other people and countries are moving more and more independently. Who determines our emancipation? What does it look like? How do we assess progress?
