Part 1: The Great Lie 

“Racism is total estrangement. It separates not only bodies, but minds and spirits.
Inevitably it descends to inflicting spiritual and physical homicide
upon the out-group.”

– MLK

  2. The Great Lie of Racism
  3. How the Great Lie has Spread
  4. Three Main Types of Racism

Part 2: Under the Skin 

“If I had an hour to solve a problem,
I’d spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem
and five minutes thinking about solutions.”

– Albert Einstein

In Part 2: Mardoche and Robert will look at how the brain works through associations; how a type of belief is associated with additional ones; and how the best way to fully solve a problem is to therefore understand it, including using the process of associations.

quantitative change in our lives.”

– MLK
