Hes the only one there trying to approach from a place of patience. Everyone else is trying to get the satisfaction of venting their anger and pain, which is valuable to do at some point, but is damaging to themselves and society to make your main approach.
Damn I never really watched this and listened, dean rlly knows what he's saying. he's right. marching and listening to kdot didn't change anything. black ppl are still being killed and oppressed. we need wide discussions about why this is happening and what black and white peoples relation to eachother is. he's right. lmao. wild.
I think it's kind of refreshing even though I would like to see videos of Dean Blunt it is just a reminder to enjoy the moment without saturating it with streaming all the time. I think that is one of the reasons why he remains to approach things in an analog way. To note, he has like 1-3 live shows that are documented.

to those criticising the panels credentials, realise this is a discussion of current lived experiences of which everyone can be a quote 'academic expert' on. the spaces the panel are in and their lived experiences are the reason why they were chosen most likely as they give a wide range of perspectives. i think dean is making a lot of valuable points here about performative activism and recognising the differences between the uk and the us in terms of institutionalised racism but the fighting back on certain points against him from other members of the panel rather than offering how they see certain aspects make this somewhat unproductive. can't say i blame dean on walking out.
