"Stamped From the Beginning"

An ambitious, challenging documentary about the origins of racist ideas and sentiment, this film feels like it should be required viewing for everyone.

There is never a limit to learning, and director Roger Ross Williams’ documentary “Stamped from the Beginning” taught me a considerable number of things that the American educational system did not. This eye-opening, academically-minded film (based on Dr. Ibram X. Kendi’s 2016 New York Times bestseller) chronicles the entire story of racist ideas and the astonishing power that anti-black…

“I wish you were a better man I wonder what we would've become If you were a better man We might still be in love If you were a better man You would've been the one If you were a better man”

Herc’s Saved TedTalks

Sort of inspired by last month’s task and something that I have had in my drafts for about as long as I’ve had Herc. His constant wish to be better is both a beautiful and a heartbreaking thing to me, because he just doesn’t see how he can be enough.

He feels he isn’t enough, especially to be the boss. He doesn’t know how to lead, or how to inspire others, how to be a successful business owner. So whenever he takes public transport, he listens to TedTalks, tries to learn how to be better, to do better, to do more, to be a leader and a carer and inspire others. So here are just a few of the ones he has come back to over the years.

1. How Great Leaders Inspire Action - Simon Synek

“Because there are leaders and there are those who lead. Leaders are people who hold a position of power or authority, but those who lead inspire us... we follow those who lead not because we have to, but because we want to. We follow those who lead not for them, but for ourselves. And it’s those who start with why that have the ability to inspire those around them... ”

2. How to build your confidence -- and spark it in others - Brittany Packnett Cunningham

“Permission births confidence, community nurtures it, and curiosity affirms it.

3. An NFL Quarterback on overcoming setbacks and self-doubt - Alex Smith

“I got really, really anxious. Do I really belong here? How long until they find out I’m a fraud? The questions paralysed me. I was absolutely terrified to make mistakes and I was desperate for others validation. It followed me around 24/7...

... “Don’t worry.” It sounds simple, and it is, but I guess I didn’t really believe it was possible until it came from somebody I trusted... [Blake Costanzo] was a guy who approached the game in the exact opposite way that I did. He was taking the challenge head on, he was fully present, right in the moment, right in my face. Just live.

These ideas were a counterweight to all my doubts, and wouldn’t you know it, I started playing better, started having fun again and we started winning.”

“I’ve learned that so much of the anxiety that holds us back in life, it’s self-inflicted. We make it worse on ourselves, and it’s ok if we need somebody to help us snap out of it.”

4. Helping others Makes Us Happier - but it matters how we do it - Elizabeth Dunn

“We’re used to thinking about giving as something we should do, and it is. But in thinking about it this way, we’re missing out on one of the best parts of being human: that we have evolved to find joy in helping others. Lets stop thinking about giving as just this moral obligation, and start thinking of it as a source of pleasure.”

5. Get Comfortable with Being Uncomfortable - Luvvie Ajayi Jones

“Fear has a very concrete power of keeping us from doing and saying the things that are our purpose...”

“Being comfortable is overrated. Because being quiet is comfortable. Keeping things the way they’ve always been is comfortable. All comfortable has done is maintain the status quo.”

“It’s like co-signing the woman in the meeting, you know, the woman who can’t seem to get her word out, or just making sure that other person who can’t make a point is being heard. Our job is to make sure they have room for that. Everyone’s wellbeing is community business.”

+ One he really should pay actual attention to...

The Benefits of Not Being a Jerk To Yourself - Dan Harris

“the woman who was running the retreat, my teacher... she kept insisting that if I wanted to be less of a jerk to other people, I needed to start by being less of a jerk to myself.”

“As your inner weather gets balmier, because you’ve learned to high five your demons, that shows up in your relationships with other people. And because relationships are probably the most important variable when it comes to human flourishing your inner weather improves even further and up you go. And that is the whole point here. Self-love, properly understood not as narcissism, but as having your own back, is not selfish. It makes you better at loving other people.”

“Next time you notice yourself going down the toilet, if nobody’s looking, put your hand on your heart and talk to yourself the way you would talk to a good friend... this process of replacing your sadistic inner tyrant with a supportive inner coach - who has high standards, but is not a jerk about it - makes you more likely to reach your goals.”

“Upping your love game is anything but boring. It’s counter-cultural because it cuts against the never-enoughness and always-behindness that society seems to want us to feel. It’s courageous because it’s hard to look at your demons. And its happiness-producing because when you high five your demons they don’t own you as much. And all of that makes you more generous and more available.”

Karlie is friends with goop and Reese, specifically through Derek and the LA crew. Though I gotta say she is friends with alot of surprising people, like Brittany packnett Cunningham. I saw her supporting her projects etc and her comments on her posts since 2 years ago mid pandemic and I was shocked lol

Karlie is suuuuper popular. But yeah this specific trip seems like a girlboss summit tbh more than just friends vibing.

I recommend checking out this twitter post directly (https://twitter.com/MsPackyetti/status/1265314497151078402?s=19), but to put the content here as well:

"White folks: instead of lather, rinse & repeat your tweets for #GeorgeFloyd or about #AmyCooper, here are things you can *actually do* to interrupt that stems from which you benefit.

Compiled by white people who made the effort:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BRlF2_zhNe86SGgHa6-VlBO-QgirITwCTugSfKie5Fs/edit?usp=drivesdk

https://medium.com/equality-includes-you/what-white-people-can-do-for-racial-justice-f2d18b0e0234"

I see a lot of fellow white people sharing things, making clear their outrage, and stating their support of black lives, but we need to carry that forward by listening directly to black voices (instead of filtered through non-black publications, organization, and individuals), boosting those voices over our own, and doing the work: educating ourselves, continuing to speak up like we do during these moments of our outrage during all the points in between (including when its 'uncomfortable' or 'inconvenient' or could 'ruin' an event or mood, and ESPECIALLY when in the company of only other white people), voting in all elections possible (and paying close attention to items like judge selection!!), supporting community grassroots movements to bolster community resources and support systems while reducing policing, and always ALWAYS being mindful of just what it means if we attempt to call law enforcement on black and POC people.

My health keeps me from doing much, including reading or watching new/novel content (as in, content I'm not already familiar with or haven't consumed previously), but this google doc is a great resource that I can take my time and work through when I have the energy and cognitive clarity to do so. We all have a lot on our plates and minds at times, but we all have spaces of time where we don't.

And when you find yourself feeling emotionally or otherwise fatigued by it all and need to take a break for mental health, do so and take care of yourself but also take a moment to reflect on the fact that being able to put it down for a while is a privilage that black people don't have.
