It's all bearing down on the very present moment and  until we are able to really look back and reckon with and understand the past, we will not understand where we are now and we certainly won't understand where we're going. And so in unearthing those untold stories I am simply trying to help us understand where we are and how we got here so that we can chart a better way.”“White people unfortunately, are socialized to rarely examine their own racial identity.”“When people buy into something like the NRA they're a part of it and they can't bring themselves to evolve and realize, wow, this doesn't fit my ideology anymore.”“You can think of a ton of people who really operate in this world as white people live with white privileges in many ways, vote white vote with the white majority, right and yet when we look at the census data, somehow they're excluded from this group”.“Basically everything that is problematicis problematic in society has racist roots in America.” “the history of country music is actually the history of like racial congruence, like black and white people coming together in a really powerful way but of course anti-blackness and white supremacy have boxed black people and many other people of color completely out of the genre.”MentionedLinktree@Garrionh Instagram @GarrisonHayes  TikTok@Garrison_Hayes Twitter@Garrison Hayes YouTubeThe History of White PeopleThroughline - NPR
