If you like to observe and think critically and go beyond the superficial in trying to make sense of our world, perhaps we have something in common.
I share something from an APA article that is very topical amid all the discussions about systemic racism.
"How do you react when you encounter someone of a different race? You may not be aware of what’s really going on in your mind.
Research by psychologist William Cunningham and colleagues has revealed the complexity of what goes through people’s minds when they’re exposed to photos of people of different races. In their study, they scanned the brains of white people while flashing images of white and African American faces at them. Some photos flew by too quickly for participants to consciously see them; others were presented slowly enough—about half a second each—to register.
Even though all of the participants said they weren’t prejudiced, their brains told a different story. The subliminal images of African Americans prompted a lot of activity in the amygdala, a region of the brain associated with emotion. When the African American faces were presented more slowly, the amygdala calmed down and the activity shifted to a region of the brain associated with control and regulation. The findings suggest that the conscious mind can suppress unconscious prejudices.
But such repression takes a toll, according to a study by psychologist Jennifer Richeson and colleagues. The researchers began by unobtrusively testing an all-white group of participants for racial bias, then had them interact with an African American person, and finally asked them to perform a test of their cognitive capacity. In a separate session, participants viewed photographs of the faces of unfamiliar African American men while the researchers used fMRI to check their brain activity.
When they viewed the photos of the African American men, participants with high racial bias scores had high levels of activity in a brain region associated with the control of thoughts and behaviors. And participants with a lot of activity in that brain region performed more poorly on the cognitive test after interacting with the real-life African American person. In a culture where prejudice is unacceptable, the researchers concluded, biased participants were struggling to suppress their prejudice. And just as your muscles get tired after you exercise hard, the effort of suppressing racial bias temporarily exhausts your brain power.
It’s not just white people who respond negatively to African American faces, however. In an fMRI-based study, psychologist Matthew Lieberman and colleagues found that African Americans themselves also show greater amygdala activity when looking at black faces than when looking at white ones. Other researchers have speculated that whites have heightened amygdala response when viewing African American faces simply because they’re not as familiar as white faces. Lieberman’s research suggests that it’s not novelty that lies behind the response, but learned cultural beliefs.
Fortunately, what’s learned can be unlearned. Psychologist Elizabeth Phelps and colleagues, for instance, have found that familiarity with other racial groups may help defuse negative attitudes toward them.
In this research, Phelps exposed white participants to photos of unfamiliar white and African American men. The result? Heightened amygdala activity in response to the black faces. When the researchers substituted photos of well-liked, famous African Americans and whites, however, there was no difference in amygdala activity.
When it comes to inter-racial interactions, the researchers concluded, experience and familiarity can not only soothe the amygdala but bring people’s unconscious reactions in line with what they say they believe in: racial equality."

Hopefully, everyone's doing well. My friend and I were at Stanley Park today and we talked about how women can flip their hair and it's so attractive!
A woman will say they are looking for intelligence, honesty, communication, confidence etc. Can a guy also, "flip" his hair? If not, what else can he do automatically? Thoughts?

In simple words: I want to present you with these words from the Holy Quran, an expression of my thanks to Canada and its people:
(49:13) O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things).
Quran surah Al Hujurat 13 (QS 49: 13)

I am able to meet with you or be there to simply listen and perhaps provide you with some solace, unconditional love, understanding, compassion or companionship in a patient non-judgemental manner. We all go through difficult challenging times in our lives, we all have our stories, we have to remember we are all connected. These challenges are always the path to growth and well being, it is hard to see when we are in it. I assure you things are going to be brighter if you believe that we are not separate beings we are all one, all you are is love, and you are loved.
I am not here to give advice, but if you ask I can be here to offer you some daily rituals towards well-being and perhaps share some of my own experiences in relation to yours and how I overcame them and overcome them on a daily basis.

Are you interested in historical battles from biblical to medieval times?
Are you a person of colour who dreams about ending white supremacy at its historical root before it even started?
Hello! We are a small group of gamers/medievalists who are currently interested in playing Warlord Games Hail Caesar but with an anti-imperialist agenda, as a way to deal.
Hail Caesar is a non-competitive, large rank and file army war game that covers ancient warfare from roughly 3000 BC to 1500 AD. We have (and are currently painting) models in the 28mm scale, and are working on recreating battles where the Ancient Greek, Spartan, and Early Imperial Roman armies lost, as a way to deal and have fun with the racism going on around us every day.
We will be recreating wars that were declared “over” mid-battle, offensives where famous generals actually shot (stabbed) themselves in their foot, conflicts where opposing forces unexpectedly joined, and the most famous examples of mid-battle truces where everyone stopped what they were doing and went home.
If you are in Calgary area and are interested in strategy games, ancient warfare, and dream about ending white supremacy at its historical root before it even started, we’d love to hear from you! Please contact me, Socrates, through email to meet up and join our games.
