E283. Black Victim to Black Victor - Adam Coleman

Walk-Ins Welcome Episode #283
1

Adam Coleman sits down with Bridget to discuss his book Black Victim to Black Victor: Identifying the ideologies, behavioral patterns and cultural norms that encourage a victimhood complex. They talk about what motivated him to write and self-publish the book, how its success took him by surprise, how growing up without a father impacted him, the effect of not having a dad on young men, what fathers need to teach their sons, how his own son helped him realize what he had missed out on, how certain corners of the internet view competent men, the holes in right wing male ideology, and how there’s no path to redemption in the extreme forms of our political discourse. They cover the importance of resisting nihilism, the "body count" topic, why there should be more discussion around the male responsibility in the choice to have a child, his experience raising his son, why conservatives don't reach out the the black community, the upcoming election, how being super online distorts your perception of reality, why it’s good to be wrong every so often, identifying the hills you'll die on, if a return to normalcy is possible, and why employing victimhood narratives are dangerous because then people just wait for a savior.
