This makes me so happy!! It's so fun to know our conversation was your driving companion haha.
And thank you, I'm glad you found value in it. Kimi has such an insightful perspective and unique experience. Our conversation gave me SO much to think about and in new ways!
You said it perfectly: "it was about moving forward rather than punishing." It's amazing how much this intention dictates whether activism is destructive or constructive. But really, in any part of life, when our goal is punishing instead of moving forward, it tends to cause more problems than solutions.
Kimi's experience with both American contemporary social justice and South African anti-apartheid social justice is so useful for clarifying how social justice is going wrong now. The resistance many activists have to discussing the role of reconciliation and fostering unity makes me suspicious of their true goals.
The SJWs are a bit simian with the whole "you no say mean things" thing.
I listened to this to and from my drive to San Francisco today, and both of you were so engaging and eloquent. I loved this interview!
