Let's Talk About RACE

Welcome to episode one of "Why Are We Talking About Rabbits?" Support this channel: first-things.org/donate How did we get to where we are? To make sense of the death of George Floyd and the riots and protests, I walk us back to the Enlightenment and the origins of Western Civilization. Phillip Sherrard's, Rape of Man and Nature is my guide for this episode. "Why Are We Talking About Rabbits?" takes you beyond rhetorical "rabbits" and the shallow approach that the media and most thinkers today take to examine contemporary cultural phenomena. Using theology, history, philosophy and years of travel in Mali, the Republic of Georgia, Haiti, and beyond, John Heers offers a refreshing take to how we got to where we are now. WAWTAR is all about talking about those heavy things… lightly. To learn more about John Heers and First Things Foundation visit first-things.org. And also, think about working for us! You might just end up finding your way out of the Matrix and into a most wonderful and tumultuous version of yourself. Please subscribe and share, and thank you for listening!
