JD Mass PsyD, noted activist and author, joins us on the Perpetual mOetion Podcast for a thought-provoking conversation about growing up in a Black community in St. Louis and navigating the complex landscape of cultural dynamics. JD's journey sheds light on the real challenges and fears brought about by cultural segregation. He emphasizes the critical role of ongoing dialogue in bridging racial divides and provides invaluable insights into distinguishing genuine allies in the era of post-George Floyd allyship. This episode serves as an important reminder of why continuous engagement and genuine understanding are essential in the fight against racism. We also dive into JD's compelling book, "Seven Steps to Healing," where he blends his memoirs with actionable steps to tackle systemic issues like racism and health disparities. JD's transition to veganism underscores the importance of understanding before taking action, a theme that resonates throughout his work. We discuss the deep roots of racism and its devastating impact on societal structures, from resource control to the propagation of disease and competition. This episode emphasizes the need for historical and systemic comprehension as a foundation for true healing and transformation, encouraging listeners to embrace empathy and continuous learning in the pursuit of unity and justice.
