Building A Bridge - Aunt Jemima, Uncle Ben, & Tearing Down Statues

Welcome to Building A Bridge

Our Mission is:

To empower people to use their voice to build a bridge beyond race relations creating unity and understanding - effectively raising the collective consciousness of humanity

We are tackling the tough issues around race relations from our unique perspectives (as a black man and white man). Neither of us are "experts" nor do we claim to have all the answers (hence "A" bridge vs "The" bridge).

In today's conversation,

We cover:

➡️ Getting rid of Aunt Jemima & Uncle Ben

➡️ What does tearing down statues accomplish

➡️ The psychology of why we do what we do

➡️ The dark truth of human history that we do not want to talk about

And much more.

We would love for you to share your thoughts/ideas on today's video. Please also consider joining our Facebook community we are building around this.

We have ongoing discussions

Guest contributors (educators, law enforcement, etc...)

It is a safe space where you can ask the difficult questions and have the uncomfortable conversations.

We invite & value your comments/questions/thoughts.

Additionally we would love to hear from you and what you would like us to cover in future videos.

Thank you for being on this journey with us.

With love,

Jesse & Jared
