Welcome back to the Deron Harris Podcast! In this milestone 200th episode, I reflect on my journey from doubting my ability to speak for just five minutes to now having produced 200 episodes. I express my gratitude to all my listeners; your support has been crucial to my growth and motivation.

I start by talking about the importance of mental health, sharing how podcasting serves as a form of personal therapy for me. I encourage listeners to prioritize their mental well-being and seek help when needed, especially amid the chaotic events unfolding around us, including the situation in Minneapolis.

This episode also tackles some heavy topics, including the recent changes to TikTok's Terms of Service, which raise concerns about privacy and the platform's influence. I discuss the implications of these changes and how they reflect broader issues of freedom of speech and government control.

I touch on the ongoing protests and the challenges we face as a society, emphasizing the need for peaceful resistance against oppressive tactics. I also critique the media's role in shaping narratives and the dangers of misinformation.

In a lighter segment, I discuss the contrasting careers of artists like Nicki Minaj and Cardi B, highlighting the importance of staying true to one's roots and community. I also express my excitement for Bad Bunny's upcoming Super Bowl performance and the cultural significance of diverse music.

Finally, I pose a thought-provoking question: Are we moving towards a fascist state in the U.S.? I share my concerns about the current political climate and the need for awareness and action.

Thank you for joining me on this journey, and I look forward to continuing to explore these important topics in the next hundred episodes!

Thank you for listening to The DERON HARRIS PODCAST Season #4 EP #195 - YOU DON'T HAVE TO APOLOGISE FOR BEING WHITE ANYMORE, BUT NOBODY EVER ASKED YOU TO - If I were White, I would Stop Listening To White People.

In this episode of the Deron Harris Podcast, host Deron discusses a recent statement made by the Vice President regarding white people no longer needing to apologize for their race. Deron expresses confusion over who has been demanding such apologies, asserting that it is not the Black community. He emphasizes that white people are not victims in America and critiques the notion of white victimhood as a fabricated grievance.

Deron shares his personal experiences with depression during the holiday season and encourages listeners to seek help if they are struggling. He then dives into the main topic, challenging the idea that white people face systemic oppression. He argues that the discomfort some white individuals feel when confronted with discussions about race is not true victimhood but rather a reaction to being held accountable for historical injustices.

Throughout the episode, Deron calls out the tendency of some white people to claim victimhood when faced with criticism, labeling it as entitlement rather than oppression. He stresses the importance of acknowledging historical facts and engaging in uncomfortable conversations to foster understanding and progress.

Thank you for listening to The DERON HARRIS PODCAST Season #4 EP #194 - "IM SO SCARED" - How White Women's Lies, Victimhood and Racism Became A Matter Of Black Life And Death

In this episode, Deron addresses a serious and sensitive topic: the intersection of white women's victimhood and racism, particularly how it impacts Black lives. He begins by sharing a personal experience that left him feeling angry and down, emphasizing the importance of mental health and seeking help when needed.

Deron discusses a documentary titled "The Perfect Neighbor," which recounts a tragic incident in Florida where a white woman shot and killed a Black mother, highlighting the dangerous consequences of white women's exaggerated victimhood. He stresses that while not all white women engage in this behavior, a significant number do, and it perpetuates a harmful cycle that endangers Black individuals.

Throughout the episode, Deron explores the historical context of white women's tears as a social weapon, explaining how societal structures have historically positioned white women as fragile and in need of protection, while Black individuals are often seen as threats. He calls out the systemic issues that allow this dynamic to persist, including biased law enforcement and educational institutions that disproportionately discipline Black children.

Deron shares various examples of how white women have weaponized their victimhood against Black people, leading to dire consequences. He emphasizes the need for accountability and urges listeners to recognize and challenge this behavior. The episode concludes with Deron expressing gratitude to his supporters and encouraging open dialogue about these critical issues, while also wishing listeners a good holiday season.

Thanks for checking out The DERON HARRIS PODCAST Season #4 EP #193 - TOO FAR RIGHT OR TOO FAR LEFT - Why Do People Care About Their Political Party More Than Their Own Families, And Why That's Bad For America.

In this episode, Deron dives into the growing divide between political parties in the United States, questioning how much individuals prioritize their political affiliations over personal relationships, including family. He expresses concern about the alarming trend of people severing ties with loved ones over political disagreements, emphasizing that such divisions are not worth the cost.

Deron begins the episode by checking in on listeners' mental health, highlighting the toll that political discourse can take on individuals. He then discusses the current political climate, noting how both Democrats and Republicans often claim to represent "all Americans," yet seem to cater only to their supporters. He critiques the lack of real progress on critical issues like healthcare and education, suggesting that both parties benefit from maintaining the status quo rather than solving problems.

Throughout the episode, Deron passionately argues that the political system has become a source of chaos, with leaders more focused on power and money than on the needs of the people.
