Cracking the Codes: The System of Racial Inequity
Cracking the Codes: The System of Racial Inequity
This 7-minute clip is from the film, Cracking the Codes: The System of Racial Inequity (2010), produced by Dr. Shakti Butler, who has a PhD from the California Institute of Integral Studies in the School of Transformative Learning and Change. In this clip, we hear a series of speakers reflect on the personal and social dynamics of “structural racism”: Barbie-Danielle DeCarlo, Rinku Sen, Suzanne LePeintre, Tilman Smith, Tim Wise, Robin Parker, and Yuko Kodama. As you watch this film clip, consider how the order of the speakers encourages us to contextualize the personal experiences we hear with theories about racism as “codes of power” in the context of history. The full film—and other short clips—is viewable at crackingthecodes.org.
