Enter a brave space to ponder solving The Cairo Question. Engage in dialogue based on the premise that dismantling racism goes beyond laws and legislation or politics or economics. It's an inside job where personal transformation and accountability impact social change in multiple dimensions: individual, interpersonal, systemic, and structural. It's a place to get comfortable with deconstructing your inner thoughts, ideas, and beliefs to examine what flows out into the world through your words, actions, and behaviors, particularly towards others who are different from yourself.

  • Why We Didn’t Show Up: The Unseen Layers of Black Absence at the No Kings Protest

    Why We Didn’t Show Up: The Unseen Layers of Black Absence at the No Kings Protest
    Nov 5 2025
    No Kings Protest - October 18, 2025"Why didn’t the Black community show up en masse?”This question itself reveals a gap in understanding — not of protest logistics, but of protest lineage. For many Black people, the act of protest is not spontaneous but generationally weighted. We have shown up for centuries — from civil rights marches to Ferguson, from George Floyd to Juneteenth resurgence. When a movement like No Kings emerges, its message may resonate intellectually but not necessarily spiritually or experientially with a community that has lived under “kingship” in the form of systemic white supremacy.

  • The Truth Behind the Test - What NAEP Reveals About Systemic Racism in Education

    The Truth Behind the Test - What NAEP Reveals About Systemic Racism in Education
    Oct 15 2025
    InflexionPoint Podcast | Episode 94 | October 15, 2025
    2025 Theme: Community Engagement & the Grassroots of Change

    Introduction Welcome to another episode of InflexionPoint Podcast, where we are dedicated to antiracism activation and the art of listening in authentic conversation, engagement, action, and accountability. Featuring creator/host Anita D. Russell, joined by co-hosts Mavis Bauman and Gail Hunter. Throughout the year, we’ve been lifting up stories, strategies, and successes of community-driven movements. In this episode we focus on "The Truth Behind the Test: What NAEP Reveals About Systemic Racism in Education," a continuation of the previous conversation with our guest, Coach Ed Bradley.

    Featured Guest: Coach Edmond Bradley With over 20 years of experience in coaching, education, and leadership development, Coach Ed Bradley brings a unique blend of mentorship, empathy, and strategic insight to his work as a Transitional Life Coach. A former high school basketball coach and teacher, Ed has dedicated his career to empowering young people to find purpose, confidence, and direction. Ed is a Life and Transitional Coach with Powerful Minds Counseling whose mission is to provide individual, family, and group counseling that promote healthy and overall mental and emotional wellness. With a master’s degree in psychology and decades of experience with diverse learners, he helps clients gain clarity and momentum toward their goals.

    Community Engagement Connection: Broaden Understanding of State School Testing Key Question: How does state school testing data mirror systems of racism in education?
    National Assessment of Educational Progress: State tests are state-developed with federal guidelines from NAEP, a national benchmark for comparison. In our discussion we explain NAEP’s purpose and how it differs from state tests. The issue is this: We don’t have one yardstick in America. Instead we have 50 different ones which we then try to compare.
    Dimensions of NAEP and Equity:
    • Potential for Justice → Reframing gaps as proof of broken systems
    • Benchmarking as Exposure of Inequity → “NAEP as mirror.”
    • Weaponization of Data → Headlines vs systemic issues.
    • Pressure & Punitive Reforms → Closures & charters.
    • Masking Structural Advantage → White outcomes as ‘normal.’
    Examples of Schools Using Data Critically and Equitable to Repair, Not Reproach
    • KIPP Comienza — Data-Driven Instruction
    • California High Schools — Equity-Centered Data Use
    • Executive Development Program Case Study — Principal Leadership & Culture Shift

    Community Engagement Connection Across Socioeconomic Backgrounds Key Question: How do students overcome the negative messages linked to socialization?
    Mental Health Connection: Check-ins across the board (student, mentors, educators, community)
    Calls to Action: Broaden understanding of state school testing and its implications. Encourage local school involvement and participation in school board meetings. Volunteer to mentor and work with students
    Sustained Effort and Common Ground: “All of us share this world for but a brief moment in time. The question is whether we spend that time focused on what pushes us apart, or whether we commit ourselves to an effort -- a sustained effort -- to find common ground, to focus on the future we seek for our children, and to respect the dignity of all human beings.” —President Barack Obama
