Social Centric Initiatives
Be better than history
There are lists of books, documentaries, videos, websites, and research on this page.
Below are listings of books recommended for those involved in justice work, research, or people who just want to broaden their knowledge. These are biographies, autobiographies, novels, fiction, science fiction, and children's stories. Many of the books listed are aligned with Social Centric goals, some are close, and others are not. In order to authentically serve a better world, we must be willing to listen to and investigate every perspective. Reading literature and investigating work of those who could be perceived as diametrically opposed to your "thinking," with an intention to understand the root of their core beliefs, is beneficial. Learning is everywhere, even in individuals or ideas that differ from ones own. Our hope is that these readings will support your endeavors. Plato said, “…as for me, all I know is that I know nothing, for when I don’t know what justice is, I’ll hardly know whether it is a kind of virtue or not…” Happy reading!

Don't always believe what you think... Thoughts can be engineered, but belief comes from the essence of your power.
"Bread & Circuses" was a social engineering policy used by the Roman Empire to distract the masses from their suffering under oppressive corrupt governance. An "appetite of spectacle" is what they called the gladiator arenas, plays about Greek tragedies, and comedic distractions where "fools" or jesters would tell the truth of the society cloaked in roaring laughter instead of loud cries or rebellious anger. The videos listed are meant to be studied, as well as used for dialogue prompts and further investigations of truth vs "reality." Blissful ignorance is deadly and bad for environmental health. Elevate your mind to enlighten humanity and resuscitate society.

This is the song "Mother." You will hear a group of Native women who call themselves Ulali chanting as images of Native girls and women flash on the screen. Their chanting is full of life, strength, pain, struggle, and the sociospiritual power of women. You are encouraged not just to listen and look, but also feel the story in the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdskIPwpsDI

This is a parody and lots of truth with regards to "thanksgiving." In this video, children act out a counter narrative depiction of interactions of Native people and European refugees in the Gregorian 1600s of an area now called Massachusetts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gy-jhIPtB3g

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. speaks of the sociospiritual power that humans called black must access for true liberation. He speaks of the arbitrary usage of the word "black" in the language of the English. These are empowering words of Dr. King that are often absent from modern conversations about his legacy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSwpvupINBk&t=2s

This vid is not an endorsement of the news agency "Vice." In this segment, the rich culture of the Gullah Geechee people is highlighted. These are descendants of enslaved peoples from lands now called Africa who have maintained the rich heritage, spirituality, and survival skill to thrive in spite of colonial white violences and terrorism. Watch and consider how people endure trauma: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqDTJogdWmA

This vid is not an endorsement of the media outlet "BuzzFeed." Blue Grass, Country, Cumbia, Merengue, Pop or Top 40, Reggae, Samba, Salsa, and many more musical genres fit this story. In this vid, you will see a brief explanation of the influence of humans called black people on the world of music. Black peoples contributions to arts, religion, and sciences is often hijacked to reinforce colonial violences. What would Rock and Heavy Metal be without Jimi Hendrix? Do your research, the theft or sharing of black brilliance runs deep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WftGDSnwvIE

This vid highlights the struggle of the Ainu people of Japan. "Ainu" means "human". The Ainu people regard things useful to them or beyond their control as "kamuy"(gods). In daily life, they prayed to and performed various ceremonies for the gods. These gods include : "nature" gods, such as of fire, water, wind and thunder ; "animal" gods, such as of bears, foxes, spotted owls and gram-puses ; "plant" gods, such as of aconite, mush-room and mugwort ; "object" gods, such as of boats and pots ; and gods which protect houses, gods of mountains and gods of lakes. The word "Ainu" refers to the opposite of these gods. While watching this, consider how these struggles expressed by the Ainu reflect struggles of colonized peoples in other parts of the world trying to maintain and survive modernity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35UhRBLIqbo

This vid is Koryaks (or Koriak) dance. They are an indigenous people of Kamchatka Krai in the Russian Far East, who inhabit the coastlands of the Bering Sea to the south of the Anadyr basin and the country to the immediate north of the Kamchatka Peninsula, the southernmost limit of their range being Tigilsk, Russia. Notice any similarities to some other people somewhere else? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaW0NwcApXU

In Noel Ignatiev's book "How the Irish Became White," the same concepts of this vid are explored in greater depth. Whiteness was an arbitrary concept engineered to separate Europeans from their ethnic heritages and ethnocentric/national/religious grudges in order to consolidate a force of dominance that would maintain an economic class structure rooted in phenotype. The Irish were exploited in Europe before colonization and exploited in the colony of the US as foot soldiers against humans considered non-white. Consider this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmHct5IHxrA&t=118s

This video highlights indigenous languages from around the world. Consider how the dominance of European and Asiatic languages are erasing the relevance of languages of Earth's original peoples. Ways of communicating with air, fire, land, water, and other species, including plants, are disappearing from the planet. What impact will this have and what can be done? Remember what the Lorax said, "I speak for the trees...": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSdSHaUzDts

This video is about ancient Nubia, a kingdom in what is now called Sudan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEQP-q4zQ9A

Robin DiAngelo explains whiteness and white fragility. White fragility is a emotional/mental barrier preventing humans called white and humans called non-white, who have strongly assimilated to whiteness, from transforming racial realities, eliminating white dominance, and healing historical traumas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwIx3KQer54

This vid is not an endorsement of the media company "HBO." From a 2012 episode of the "Newsroom," a scholar asks why "America" is the greatest country in the world to a panel of journalist. A response goes into how the US is delusional in its illusion of "greatness." It closes with a nostalgic eulogy from the same critic about what "America" was and how. This clip has been criticized by both conservatives and liberals. Conservatives at the time felt it was unpatriotic and liberals saw it is a example of an attack on a young liberal white woman in the scene. Watch the scene again and again, pay attention to the musical shifts, carefully examine the camera angles and close ups. How might this "sentiment" be weaponized by both conservative and liberal partisanship, what about the nostalgia he expresses, and how might his style of expression reflect current rhetoric: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPHSXUS0_1c
-
Chris Hayes of MSNBC does a satirical counter narrative about "rioting." In this he uses rhetoric and points typically employed about when humans called non-white, especially black, riot, toward humans called white. This is a great discussion prompt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdSsBYO1oNI

This is Ben Shapiro speaking about racial disparities with regards to incarceration and drug crimes. Please take time to investigate his claims thoroughly and assume or infer what is the baseline of core belief from which he operates. It is either humans called white are inherently more moral, more family oriented, more intelligent, and hardworking that humans called black or there is a historic and systemic intention to protect whites while simultaneously punishing blacks. Please investigate every point with either a Social Centric intention or...: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkQUej3v3Qs

The Pinky Show is satirical, yet very smart. There are three vidz for your review, "How to Solve Illegal Immigration," "We Love Museums, Do Museums Love Us Back" and "Fabulous Imperialism, the 1893 Columbian Exposition." There are many more concepts to explore in the world of Pinky for dialogue and prompts with regards to social engineering, social transformation, and bettering of the Earth. Consider watching "Scary School Nightmare," "Hawaiian Imperialism," and "Power, Structure, and Agency" also. Here are the three aforementioned.

Although all people are prone to this cognitive bias of “apophenia”, nurses may be at increased risk because they commonly produce or at least use qualitative research that can be highly interpretive. Qualitative researchers have been silent on the risk of apophenia and hence on exploring how attention to apophenia could help to indicate and manage such unconscious biases.

Although educators’ practices surrounding race and racism remain largely unexplored, decades of developmental psychological research indicate that parents of color engage in ethnic-racial socialization practices that are beneficial for children (Hughes et al., 2006).
"Japan's Hidden Apartheid: The Korean Minority and Japanese" tells the story of Japan's Korean minority and it's trouble relationship with Japanese state and society since World War II. This Korean minority circumstance is a powerful juxtaposition to other caste like or colonized minority populations in other parts of the world.
