Resumen del Editor
There was a time, not too long ago, when talking openly about race was considered in poor taste. If you had good manners, you just didn’t talk about politics, religion, or race—not with your family or friends, and certainly not with your coworkers. Even now, many people feel the topic of race is better left alone. What if we say something that’s misunderstood? What if we’re labeled a racist?
Professor Anita Foeman understands those worries. In How to Talk about Race, she addresses those specific concerns and others, giving common-sense guidance and step-by-step instructions you can employ to develop safe and productive dialogue about race. Having spent her professional life researching, teaching, writing, and facilitating conversations about race, Dr. Foeman believes the ability to engage in a productive dialogue is an important start—even if we can’t solve every problem.
It’s impossible to understand race and culture in the United States without listening to individuals tell their unique stories. In this course, you’ll meet many fascinating people who have agreed to share their stories. As you get to know them, you might realize that your assumptions about their lives—if you had made those assumptions based only on their race—would have been far afield from their actual lived experiences. As you learn to better listen and dialogue about race, most likely, you’ll never see racial issues the same way again.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Historia
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Everyone would benefit from seeing further into the future, whether buying stocks, crafting policy, launching a new product, or simply planning the week's meals. Unfortunately, people tend to be terrible forecasters. As Wharton professor Philip Tetlock showed in a landmark 2005 study, even experts' predictions are only slightly better than chance. However, an important and underreported conclusion of that study was that some experts do have real foresight.

In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

This is an easily digestible argument about what rights we have, what rights Republicans are trying to take away, and how to stop them. Mystal explains how to protect the rights of women and people of color instead of cowering to the absolutism of gun owners and bigots. He explains the legal way to stop everything from police brutality to political gerrymandering, just by changing a few judges and justices. He strips out all of the fancy jargon conservatives like to hide behind and lays bare the truth of their project to keep America forever tethered to its slaveholding past.

When two Stanford graduate students set out to create a new kind of cigarette that wouldn’t kill them, they didn’t foresee all the obstacles that lay ahead — or the powerful forces their invention would unleash. Nearly 10 years after the launch of the JUUL, Backfired: The Vaping Wars asks: Could e-cigarettes have been the solution to one of the world’s most pressing public health problems—or was this technology doomed to introduce a whole new generation to nicotine, and end up perpetuating an intractable addiction?

In 1177 B.C., marauding groups known only as the "Sea Peoples" invaded Egypt. The pharaoh’s army and navy managed to defeat them, but the victory so weakened Egypt that it soon slid into decline, as did most of the surrounding civilizations. After centuries of brilliance, the civilized world of the Bronze Age came to an abrupt and cataclysmic end. Kingdoms fell like dominoes over the course of just a few decades. No more Minoans or Mycenaeans. No more Trojans, Hittites, or Babylonians.

“Who are you?” Chances are you’d answer this question by describing the highlights of your personality and life experiences. But if you’d been asked this same question yesterday, you might have responded with a slightly different description. Does that mean you are a particular person today but were a different person yesterday? And what about tomorrow? Welcome to the slippery, shape-shifting nature of memory. As Professor Gabrielle Principe reveals, “you” are the conglomeration of the often-unreliable information your brain decides to feed you at any given moment.

“Who are you?” Chances are you’d answer this question by describing the highlights of your personality and life experiences. But if you’d been asked this same question yesterday, you might have responded with a slightly different description. Does that mean you are a particular person today but were a different person yesterday? And what about tomorrow? Welcome to the slippery, shape-shifting nature of memory. As Professor Gabrielle Principe reveals, “you” are the conglomeration of the often-unreliable information your brain decides to feed you at any given moment.

Historia
From its inception, hip-hop has challenged ideas about morality, religion, and truth. Genuinely, it’s a philosophical genre. Both philosophers and hip-hop artists think about God, death, and justice, among other things. But rarely do members of these two groups talk to one another about these issues. This is a shame, given that both hip-hop and philosophy have a rich history in deep thinking and have produced exemplary thinkers.

An Unanswered Question
Professor Foeman endeavors to conduct this course in an even-handed, generalized sort of way so that listeners of all races and political leanings can benefit from her communication strategies. Several recorded interviews are used effectively to share the perspectives of a racially diverse group of speakers, and the need for openness, empathy and tolerance is stressed throughout.
Having said that, this course is most definitely "woke" in its sensibilities and many of the assumptions underpinning Critical Race Theory (i.e., that the United States is a systemically racist, white supremist society) are treated as settled matters of fact. Perhaps for the sake of balance, Foeman does allow one or two dissenting voices to be heard, such as in Lecture 4 where her Asian colleague Bessie draws attention to those among us who approach the issue of race dogmatically. Says Bessie, “There is a subset of people who care very, very deeply about race and social class and injustice who are, I would call them ideological purists, who would just feed on conflict and divisiveness, and [who] believe that for me to succeed, or for one group to get justice, everybody else, or the others, need to be taken down.”
The reason I did not rate this course more highly is that Professor Foeman doesn’t address Bessie’s analysis in any meaningful way. She offers a lecture focused on conservatives (Lecture 10), but the important question of how to engage with ideologues on the left goes unanswered. As another of Foeman’s speakers - Jeff, a Black conservative/libertarian - points out, true courage can be defined as a willingness to “call out people on your own side” of an issue. More courage from Professor Foeman would have made this a better, more authentically balanced course.
