[biurner]

I’d be interested in a version between asian-americans and black-americans since there has been a huge divide in culture

[kamikadzegga]

I think that you need to invite more people from other parts of the world to share their views. Sergei had a new opinions about those topic just because he wasn't raised in America. You could also do a episode of spectrum with people from the same race, but different countries/continets (like 4 people from US and 4 from EU)

[Caliboymar]

The white guilt in this video was insane 😂

[woodsavenue]

no, this was actually one of the most mature episodes of spectrum, let alone with no malice energy and full understanding from every side? such a rare occurrence lol

[Lost.Translation]

2 prompt earlier
Sarah: In Japan I wouldn't be allowed to eat at certain restaurants cause im white
Prompt: Have I been denied access because of my race.
Sarah: Strongly Disagree.

This was such a respectful fun liberating intelligent kind and very much needed OPEN conversation 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Homegirl in the light green top breaking down prejudice and racism, while point out the power structure ATE

[dxcoco]

I’m a southern white girl. If I walk into a meeting talking like a hillbilly, I will definitely not be taken seriously. But around my family I definitely use more country slang. I do not doubt the code switching happens for people who amongst different groups to try to fit in.

[Odin]

The Republican black guy hit the nail on the head with the prompt on being proud of your race. No one should be ashamed of their race because of the transgressions of people who share the same skin color. But should be taken into consideration when discussing various institutions as far as policies and social programs go.

[ChrisWilliams-lsue]

I never understood racism, its not like we are born transparent and get to pick what race we want to be

[vickipriegan]

Very interesting conversation. I learn a lot from you all.
Thanks for sharing.

The island in Hawaii they referenced (Niʻihau) is privately owned. The general population cannot go there without permission, aside from the native population who were already living there at the time of purchase.

[sadisticwinter]

LOVE that they distinguished "proud to be white" vs "proud to be white ethnicity". And it was PERFECTLY PUT.
Be proud to be Greek! Slavic! German! Italian! But white isn't a collective identity like Black Americans were forced to construct.

[Snagprophet]

In Europe "white" isn't really an identity and I think the same can be said of being "black" here. Every single "black" person who lives in the UK is an immigrant or the descendants of immigrants from Nigeria or Ghana etc and the focus tends to be on Nigerian culture etc as well as the British culture they assimilate into.

[Morgan-hguj]

I love the conversation it felt smooth and the communication was really incredible

[stsharkb]

Thay girl said she was denied access to restaurants in Japan and then she says she hasnt been denied access.

[stephh]

Can all of the spectrum participants be like this group? They were all SO respectful and I, for once, didn’t roll my eyes at anyone 😂

[S.U.K__World]

we need more interactions like this, I love it

[ux-]

"It's racist to not be sexually attracted to a different race". It just feels like this prompt was danced around. I don't think anyone said anything directly related to it. I wouldn't know their stances if it wasn't for where they stood (agree/disagree).

[Jordan-xgpn]

I feel like the overall dialogues we are having and everything is feeling so much lighter and respectable this year. Loving the shift in positive attitude 😊
