Guns, White Supremacy, and Capitalism: Unpacking America's Deepest Issues

Because this white, supremacist, patriarchal capitalism that we are living in requires the same removal of compassion, of emotion that is also required to being a serial killer, to taking lives to take someone's livelihood is tantamount to taking someone's life in a capitalist society.
What happens when guns, white supremacy, and capitalism collide in America? In this episode of 'Black Fluid Poet', John S. Blake doesn't shy away from the tough questions. With a voice that feels like a warm embrace, Blake dives into the tangled web of societal issues that many prefer to ignore. He connects the dots between gun violence, systemic racism, and the relentless drive for profit, painting a picture that's both alarming and eye-opening.
One striking quote from the episode captures the essence of his argument: 'This white, supremacist, patriarchal capitalism we live in demands the same lack of compassion as a serial killer'. Blake's candid reflections are a call to action, urging us to rethink our values and the structures we support. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to understand the undercurrents shaping our society and how we can work towards a more compassionate future.
