Description

In the first half of today's episode, we discuss a national story about a Black couple who received an appraisal on their home...only to have it increased by nearly a half-million dollars when they got a White couple to stand in for them. We also discuss how this and other things affect Black wealth or lack thereof. Furthermore, we share examples of our own where whitewashing was what we felt we had to do in order to be treated fairly.Support the showwww.civiccipher.comFollow us: @CivicCipher

Civic Cipher is a weekly radio show/podcast hosted by Ramses Ja and Q. Ward. This show is dedicated to empowering Black and Brown voices, allowing them to engage directly with their communities as well as the general population. Self-determination is critical to securing a future free of oppressive systems, and Civic Cipher exists to facilitate discussions toward this end. Furthermore, Civic Cipher seeks to inform non-POC allies who may not be privy to these types of discussions and optics. Finally, Civic Cipher seeks to provide long-form conversations in spaces where there is often a lack of significant resources, potent dialogue, or the necessary engagement for facilitating a healthy and productive civil discourse.Facebook/Instagram/Twitter: @civiccipher
