OCG Witness from the Bridge Series ::: Dr. Raymond A. Winbush, Ph.D. :::

Our Common Ground with Janice Graham

"In Conversation with Dr. Raymond A. Winbush, Ph.D." Director of the Institute for Urban Research Morgan State University MD Too many Black leaders (elected, appointed or anointed) have opted for access to power, rather than challenging or seeking to hold actual power. Too many have opted merely for a “piece of the pie” rather than building the institutional and community-based capacity to question the baker and determine how the pie will be sliced. So today most of the Black leadership passively acquiesces to the calculated marginalization of the Black electorate by the Democratic Party. We invite Dr. Ray Winbush to join us to talk about the issues on the landscape of Black life and community – the demand for chattel slavery reparations, voter suppression, police reform because it seems the Biden administration has big dreams but no heart to claim them. Dr. Winbush is a research professor and the Director of the Institute for Urban Research. As a scholar and activist, he is known for his systems-thinking approaches to understanding the impact of racism/white supremacy on the global African community.
