Unlearning Together | Episode 2 - Forgive: The New Mantra and Practice for Black Men with Ulysses Slaughter and Tamara Smiley Hamilton

"Mother Earth is suffering, we ourselves are suffering, and so this seems to be a constant bad news whenever we turn, wherever we turn. But I also want to say that there's obviously a lot of good news and that they coexist together, and so I begin with the premise, and this is deeply embedded inside of me, I think from the time I was a small child, that we are, as human beings, whole, resourceful, and creative people, and that we're born that way and we have what we need to live in this world that contains so much suffering and so much beauty."
"Obviously within the United States there's a great sense of dividedness, us against them, and I believe that an important step toward a sense of internal healing and wholeness has to begin with ourselves. That can be a long journey that is both a psychological journey. I want to lift up the words of John Welwood and spiritual bypass. The idea here is that we need to do psychological work as well as the spiritual journey."
