The Reckoning of Injustice and Distractions
This snip discusses the reckoning of injustices and distractions in society. The COVID-19 pandemic unveiled pre-existing inequalities and injustices as marginalized racialized workers were disproportionately affected. This forced a confrontation with the capitalist notion of individual success and highlighted the interconnectedness of society. The pandemic also led to a deepening racial justice reckoning and a vision for a society with different spending priorities. In addition to economic injustices, there is a reckoning with settler colonial states and the climate crisis. Various distractions are being used to divert attention from these reckonings. The speaker emphasizes that the current moment is a significant turning point, with uncertainties about where it will lead.
