World Social Justice Day

In the fight for social justice “Our greatest weapons are our voices and our passion - Let us wield these tools with courage and conviction, for the sake of our present and for the promise of our future.”

In this opening episode of Coup Save America’s third season, host, Sean St. Heart, is out sick with covid. His producer, Mckenzie, also has covid, but she valiantly (and awkwardly) manages to record an introduction to the show, as she talks about why we felt it important to air our first episode of 2024 on the United Nations’ World Day of Social Justice. Theme: “Bridging Gaps, Building Alliances.”

Before airing a pre-recorded conversation between Sean and a valued former guest, Mckenzie plays us a music video to the title track of Paul Hayward and The Cides new album The Rebel.

Inclusion and diversity consultant Sedruola Maruska joins Sean St. Heart to talk about social justice and to teach us what individual citizens can do to end the cycle of racism in America. According to Sedie, it all comes down to "Seeing humans as human and treating them as such." Don't look at the big picture and think there's nothing you can do. Self-examine, take your power, speak up, and do whatever you can to affect change in your own space. Don't look at the big picture and think there's nothing you can do. Self-examine, take your power, speak up, and do whatever you can to affect change in your own space. Small acts have a huge impact.
