Ep 102: You Can’t Fight Oppression with Oppression
Manage episode 338187526 series 3000587
In part inspired by behavior we’ve seen on social media, April and Tracie discuss the importance of recognizing and holding multiple truths, even when some truths are less-than-savory. Western/American society pushes either/or dynamics in many facets of life, including in understanding oppression: we’ve been taught you can be oppressor or oppressed, not both. In truth, nearly all of us are both to different degrees, depending on context, power dynamics, and other factors. Sadly, ignoring this both/and can lead to causing more harm.
