Hello! Going to try to really pay attention to this show tonight (instead of checking e-mail and playing games).

what a weird comment, I would suspect bot too.

When The Pittsburgh Temple attack occurred,Muslim women in my Brooklyn neighborhood immediately formed groups to raise money to help. That's true love

I assume it's just concern that you might get peckish

Anyway.... A relevant graphic for tonight's program. Familiarize yourselves with it, and you'll know more about Islam than, sadly, far too many Americans.

Jeff Moore:

Oops – sorry, Emily, I didn't really mean that connotation of blandness. I mostly just meant that you seem the opposite of malignant.
  7:21pm
Emily:

Hahah Thank you, Jeff! I figured that’s what you meant :) I am a button pusher though.

Emily:

Or I can be. Not for nothin.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:22pm
ultradamno:

Without veering to much into politics, think of Ilhan Omar whatever you like, but I've noticed a deliberate tactic of some media figures (Tomi Lahren, Jeanine Pirro, other Fox News types) to just work her name into the phrase "sharia law" as often as possible without any factual basis.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:23pm
ultradamno:

Work her name and that phrase into the same sentence, I mean to say.
  7:23pm
Emily:

@ Ken from HP “lifeaholics”! I love that one.
Avatar 7:23pm
kimzilla:

@Richard, thanks for this. Really interesting stuff!
  7:25pm
Emily:

@ultradamno it’s like malignant word-association conditioning.

DeonnaSayed:

Hey everyone! Thanks for being in the chat room
Avatar 7:26pm
kimzilla:

We'll have to bring Mark Hurst into this @Ultradamno, but I am sure that there are creepy algorithms created that have search results of "sharia law" when you type Ilhan Omar.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:26pm
Richard S:

No prob, @Kimzilla! It's amazing to see that there are many varieties of Islam, just like Christianity.

True. People have to look...down

Not next hour's Becky, though.

yes!!! performative identities!!! they're the worst!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:40pm
ultradamno:

You hear it said that 'white' is a fictional social construct, but what you say about your experience lays it out concretely.

Right, Normie Becky, not Honky Tonk Becky.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:46pm

so true about performative identity

It seems there's less than the usual chatter on the message board tonight. Must be because everyone is LISTENING!
  7:47pm
DeonnaSayed:

I'm talk about heavy stuff....
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:48pm
ultradamno:

This might be another area to bring in Mark, is how social media has corralled people into virtual tribes that do not abide contradictions.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:48pm
listener 126464:

we can handle it
  7:51pm
Redbranch:

Should black people sit down and talk with white supremacists?How is crossing the BDS picket line to talk to zionists different? I'm all for Jews and Muslims tearing down barriers, but is there is no zionism that is compatible with values of freedom and equality for all people. Its whole history has been about controlling both Jews and Muslims, and pitting them against each other. We can benefit from talking to people who have different perspectives, but not those who have different values or want us dead for being who we are.

kimzilla:

Ultradamno, I think you might be right. @listener 126363, right, we totally can multitask!

I’m listening instead of typing! This is one I wanted to hear again. Even though we just edited it.

kimzilla:

I was always taken by this guy and the conversations and minds he has changed in the KKK world, and he's a black guy. I think its difficult, and some people are good at listening. I think that is a big part of it. Not trying to change minds. www.npr.org...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:54pm
melinda:

@ultradamno I'd like to hear a show on that.

Listener Robert:

This has been an excellent one.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:56pm
melinda:

@kimzilla I thought of Daryl Davis too. I think there is a Love & Radio podcast episode with him.
  7:56pm
Emily:

I love this concept of “small stories” and this way of talking about it. I’m incorporating this into my verbiage.
  7:56pm
Emily:

Thanks, Listener Robert!

@ Melinda oh, I LOVE love & radio

Holy crap, I just got a shock checking the clock! Thanks so much Kim, Emily and Deonna!

DeonnaSayed:

Thank you for listening. I had a wonderful time with Emily and Kimzilla.
  7:58pm
Listener Robert:

I'm tempted to wish you ill health forever, i.e. your loss is our gain -- but I doubt there's really a negative correlation with quality of program, and you people are too nice to be sick. Feel better ASAP.
