Using YouTube to Break Conditioning and Heal the Racial Divide

[DBTrek]

Those relying on external entities - Government, YouTube, NAACP, the media, etc - to do diddly for racial relations are bound for disappointment. No doubt.

But YouTube facilitates connections between people that can allow folks to make their own observations and judgments. You can listen to the popular narratives currently being pushed about race and buy into one divisive side or the other. OR, you can log on to YouTube and see all people as themselves, free from hype and a narrative framework. Make your own judgment on what people are like from direct observation, a vantage point that would normally be unavailable to you.

That was my point.

You only wish you were significant enough to make anyone mad.

I enjoyed the videos DB. It's always interesting to see others genuine perspective on issues. One thing I've noticed when I'm away from the MSM is how much different groups actually agree with each other and goals are common. Much more so than what the news and politicians want you to believe.

Sure there are the outliers on both sides that are so absorbed in themselves and their lifestyles and are too afraid to leave their protective bubble. From what I've witnessed at work, racism and bigotry is found at all sides.

Racism and bigotry is found because you are being forced to work with black people

Understand completely. And my point is that TPTB will not let that happen, thus the bannings/targeting of YouTube personalities is already started, thus you have Zuckerberg calling for govt regulation (hint, govt regs will just raise the bar for startups, limiting any competition)...

I get where you're coming from, 100%... But I also see the entrenched interests circling the wagons. Who has more power in the long run? Remains to be seen imho. But like the UK, which is way ahead of the US in this regard, they want to shut you up. The UK is really clamping down, as is the EU, in restricting seeing "other narratives".
