Tune in for this breathtaking conversation with Jane Elliott about the ISMs in America (RacISM, ClassISM, ColorISM and SexISM). Jane is an American diversity educator, author, and anti-racism activist who is courageous, unfiltered, and unapologetic in speaking truth about racism in America. As an educator, she became known for her "Blue eyes/Brown eyes" exercise, which she first conducted with her third-grade class[a] on April 5, 1968, the day after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. Over the past 50 years, she has appeared on many daytime talk shows/podcasts like Oprah, Dr. Phil, Jimmy Kemmel, Bernice King, and Roland Martin just to name a few.

Troy J. Walker, an activist, poet, and entrepreneur, has released I’m Not Your Enemy the Binary Effect, an impactful narrative that explores the violence towards and among the Black and Brown communities of America. The book touches upon systematic racism in the country and how it has turned people of color against each other when they should be offering each other support. Having to grow up amid the turbulent and unpredictable streets of New Orleans, Troy got to observe and live through the violence and discrimination. His childhood experiences, half a decade of incarceration, and seeing the viciousness of the drug trade through a single involvement over 30 years ago inspired him to dedicate his life to changing social patterns within the community.
