Shiloh Hendricks and the Word of Power
Manage episode 480824529 series 3348004
Shiloh Hendricks was caught on video calling a man, and was accused of calling a child, “the N word” with a “hard R.” In other words, she broke the “alpha taboo” of language. She set up a GiveSendGo to help fund the looming legal battle she knows is coming. We support her, and explain why in todays episode, but more importantly, we also explore why we both believe this is a watershed moment in the history of race relations in America going back to the Civil Rights era.
John wrote what I consider to be the quintessential essay on both the event itself and race relations in the fallout from the Austin Metcalf murder and Shiloh Hendricks affair.
