Resistance Radio with John and Regan

Resistance Radio with John Kane 7/28/22; Yeah! That Pope thing.

What a mockery it was to place a headdress on this guy's head. And NO! He didn't apologize for the role of the church or the clergy in the abuse and genocide of Canada's "residential schools."

Resistance Radio 7/21/22; Racism and Genocide!

These are not the same and both are largely misunderstood

Resistance Radio with John Kane 7/14/22; If the Washington NFL team can change its name, whats wrong with all these little white towns?

If a morally bankrupt organization like the Washington NFL team can change its race-based name, why can't all these little white towns with their little white schools do the same?

Resistance Radio 7/7/22; Land Acknowledgements! Who are they for?

Are these acknowledgements done to make white folks feel better? Don't just acknowledge that we once lived in a space; give us some space!

Resistance Radio with John Kane 6/30/22; What’s right but oh so wrong? The SCOTUS!

The Supreme Court continues to empower and embolden states as they promote evangelical ideology on everything from abortion to prayers at school to the Doctrine of Christian Discovery.

Resistance Radio with John Kane 6/23/22; Cambridge Loses Its Appeal

No. Not Cambridge, Mass. Cambridge, NY; my home town. The school board appealed to State Supreme Court to overturn a ruling by the State Education Commissioner forcing the school to retire its "Indians" name and mascot.

Resistance Radio with John Kane 6/16/22; Your history is not ours!

If you are taught about something that was done to Native people; that is not our history. It's yours!

Resistance Radio 6/9/22; Is That Racist?

After the killing of 10 Black people by a white supremacist in Buffalo, NY; there is plenty of talk about racism. But if we reduce racist acts to only acts of violence and hate, we are missing the breeding grounds of racism. If we only see victims of racism as Black, we are missing what white supremacy really is.

We need to spell out just what racism is and what acts are racist acts.

Resistance Radio 6/2/22; Black White Supremacists

While I don't believe people of color can be racists, that comes from the fact that racism is about power and is institutional. But people of color sure can support white supremacy, especially if that white supremacy has shined well on them.

Resistance Radio 5/26/22; The Lottery

A short story I read many years ago in K-12 haunts me now as mass shootings have become a part of daily life. Or death.
