Why doesn't the human race go back to being and acting like a decent human being with courtesy, respect, consideration for others etc regardless of skin color, race, religion etc. If we all practiced being a decent human being the rest would follow instead of jamming ideology of any issue down our throats whether it's real or fabricated. If you want to win over people that are really racist then win them over with knowledge and kindness. I know this may sound superficial but it works! Maybe on smaller circles however eventually those circles will grow and human beings can be at peace with each other.

Great discussion gentlemen. I especially appreciated Samuel's comment at the 20 minute mark, that anti-racism isn't about protecting a marginalized class but about stripping power from those they label as oppressive or having power. Same tactics used all throughout history, from Stalin to Hitler to Mao. And it is Harvard that is being sued for its discriminatory actions against Asian students. Kenny Xu has been wonderful to watch in that fight. The way that Harvard assigns negative personality stereotypes to Asian students is so blatantly offensive!

I hope that you'll also cover the Canadian Anti-Hate Network (CAHN). They've targeted some real ractist people/groups but they've also targeted women's groups who are speaking out against the loss of sex protected spaces. And they've caused trouble for some Jewish groups.

Last point, I don't know much about rap but I have been loving listening to Tom MacDonald!

Jamil, I enjoyed the banter of you three dudes. However, the segment is a bit too long and IMO should be around 30 minutes instead of 43 minutes.
