Critical Race Trauma
Nikole Hannah Jones is the scariest Black person in America right now because she makes white people aware of themselves and their history and the racism they’ve been a part of. Why is Nikole and 1619 and Critical Race Theory so frightening? Why is it that the right wants us to keep Dr. Seuss but cancel Nikole Hannah Jones? And how can you be racist without being mean? And what the hell is wrong with white people???Hosts: Danielle Moodie & TouréExecutive Producer: Adell ColemanSenior Producer: Ryan WoodhallProducer: Quinton HillDistributor: DCP EntertainmentSupport the show: https://www.dcpofficial.com/democracy-ishSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The GOP Is Trash
The GOP blocks an inquiry into 1/6 because they’re a garbage party that’s detached from reality. But—Trump is close to facing *criminal* charges! Do Danielle and Toure think he’s going to… prison? Unsurprisingly, they disagree. Democracyish.

MAGAish
Now for something completely different—this week Toure and Danielle are on vacation and the show has been taken over by “Josh” and “Brittany” two Black MAGA-loving maniacs. They’re Black but not like Black-Black. You’ll see. It’s a very special episode of Democracyish or I should say MAGAish.

Please Vaccinate
Over here we have lefties who won’t take the vaccine. Over here we have righties who won’t accept Critical Race Theory. Both of y’all are workin our last nerve. Plus why Kamala Harris can’t say America is a racist nation even though we know that she knows the deal. Democracyish.

We All Gone Die
We are traumatized yet again by police murder. This time Andrew Brown Jr. And Mario Gonzalez. The police are insane—America just got finished convicting one of their guys and they’re still murdering us with impunity. That plus why are Black people so anti-vax? We’re the most likely to get Covid and the least likely to take the vaccine. Make it make sense please. I hate it here. Democracyish.

Chauvin Is Guilty
Chauvin is guilty. And that’s cathartic. But Ma’Khia is dead. And it starts again. We talk with Elie Mystal through the pain of being Black in this moment, the key moments in the trial, the question of whether or not Kim Potter will go to prison for murdering Daunte Wright, and what can we do for self-care in this very traumatic moment for Black people.

Daunte Wright
We interrupt our conversation about the trial of a white cop who murdered a Black person to bring you a new story about a white cop who murdered a Black person. Daunte Wright is dead. And we’re heartbroken. We talk about Daunte, Chauvin, Nazario, America, and how to get some self-care in a traumatizing moment like this.

Is Derek Chauvin Goin Down?
The Derek Chauvin trial is triggering but we can’t turn away. Toure is confident that he will be convicted—the Chief of Minneapolis Police testified against him.

America On Trial
We’re talking about the Derek Chauvin murder trial even though it’s really triggering and traumatizing to relive him executing George Floyd in the street while people stood there and told him, you’re killing him. It’s hard to watch but we can’t turn away. We’re already dead inside. Democracryish.

Stop White Violence
White male violence is probably the greatest threat to America right now. Not Russia. Not ISIS. White mass shooters. White insurrectionists. White police who are repressing BLM rallied. White cops kneeling on our necks.
