One of the big ahas in this whole book was getting people to accept that they can be racially offensive without being a racist.
Why do we discriminate, and how can we change our thinking? In this episode of The Brain Warrior's Way Podcast, Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen sit down with former NFL star and pastor Miles McPherson to tackle these pressing questions. McPherson, author of 'The Third Option: Hope for a Racially Divided Nation', dives into the science behind racism, discussing the evolutionary roots and the brain's role in fostering in-group/out-group biases.
The conversation is candid and raw, as all three share personal stories of encountering racism and its impact on their lives. McPherson offers practical insights on how we can shift our thought patterns and challenge societal constructs that keep us divided. By the end of the episode, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how our brains process racial differences and what steps we can take to overcome inherent biases.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to foster greater understanding and unity in a divided world.
