Breaking the Silence: Ep 9: Tackling Societal Fear and Economic Violence

Welcome back to the Morris Perspective Podcast with your host, Connie Morris. In this episode, as part of our "Breaking the Silence" series, we delve into the intricate ties between societal fear and economic and structural violence. We explore how societal fears, often fueled by stereotypes and misinformation about Black communities, contribute to racial injustice.

Join us as we dissect the roots of societal fear, from "Karen" incidents to media portrayals, and examine how these perceptions justify systemic barriers and inequalities. We discuss instances of economic and structural violence, such as housing discrimination and educational inequities, which perpetuate cycles of poverty and fear within communities of color.

Most importantly, we focus on actionable strategies to confront and dismantle these systems. Discover ways to foster education, demand policy changes, invest in communities, and challenge media narratives. Let's embark on a journey towards equity, understanding, and justice. Together, we can break the silence and strive for meaningful change.
