Dark Therapy | This Week In White Supremacy | E245

Welcome back to another episode of This Week In White Supremacy where hosts Jasiri X , Miracle, and Saïd bring their signature blend of humor, sharp commentary, and unfiltered truth to the table. A major theme of the episode is accountability—what it is, who practices it, and who just talks about it, 1HOOD chops up the difference between being honest about your flaws and actually working to change them. They call out the trend of people using “therapy language” to manipulate others, referencing everything from The Sopranos to the Man-O-Sphere and online “dark” therapy culture. The banter quickly turns to the everyday mayhem in America as the conversation shifts to the current political climate focusing on Donald Trump, JD Vance, and RFK Jr. to highlight the dangers of anti-intellectualism, with RFK Jr.’s infamous call to “stop trusting the experts” coming under fire arguing that undermining science and expertise is a hallmark of totalitarianism, not democracy. With Trump’s future uncertain, the crew speculate on the Republican Party’s succession plan. JD Vance, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Marco Rubio, and even Tucker Carlson are mentioned as possible contenders, but none seem to have the charisma or support to fill Trump’s shoes. The discussion points out the GOP's lack of popular, unifying figures and the ongoing internal strife and chaos happening on the red side of the aisle. The podcast falls out into Trump’s policies, including the disproportionate impact on Black women in the federal workforce and the gutting of DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) initiatives. 1HOOD stress the importance of mutual aid, community organizing, and supporting Black leadership in the face of systemic setbacks. As the show wraps up, The message is clear: it’s not enough to be honest about your flaws—real change requires effort, growth, and a willingness to be better. In a world full of political theater and empty rhetoric, the call to action is simple: support your community, seek the truth, and always strive to improve.   -- To help us build liberated communities through arts, education, and social justice visit our website 1hood.org to purchase your official 1HOOD apparel or consider making a tax-deductible donation to 1Hood Media.   -- WATCH THE SHOW: youtube.com/@twiws -- FOLLOW 1HOOD  youtube.com/@1hood facebook.com/1hoodmedia instagram.com/1hoodmedia x.com/1hood -- About: This Week In White Supremacy is the 1Hood podcast discussing the cultural effects and weekly injustices surrounding white supremacy; through intelligent, insightful commentary and often comedic conversations this podcast is geared towards adults who want to digest the latest news and events with humor and Hip-Hop. -- DISCLAIMERS: The views and opinions expressed during this presentation are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of 1Hood Media, 1Hood Power, and or its affiliates.
