Episode 16: A Comfortable Evil

07/23/20 • 15 min

Big news coming from Deconstruct. We're going to be growing towards our first ever long-form series. It's going to be a journey of accountability, confrontation, and trust in our ability to heal together.

We’re going to keep growing, we’re going to keep exploring and learning together. We’re going to be beginning a new and long-lasting series for Deconstruct, the first of its kind. It’s time that the show concerts its efforts in exploring difficult myths.

As a primer for this new journey, I want to share the speech I made from the Spencer Black Lives Matter protest. It's complex, it's confrontational, and loving.

More to come in the future. Much love.

Episode 15- Your Friendly Neighborhood Defense Groups, feat. COAL

Protestors and Leftists have been getting a scary, unnecessary rep recently. With nebulous paranoia about the dangers of "antifa", the expectation that every protest is going to turn into looting, and the readiness of a lot of the population to demonize the folks standing up for black lives, I thought it would be fun to speak with members of COAL, a coalition of armed defense groups and justice organizers across the United States.

Tune in for a healing, sweet, and fun little conversation that humanizes the left and delves into some of the pressing matters we can learn from. We talk about COAL, and what its affiliate chapters do. We talk about CHAZ, the NFAC, Dungeons & Dragons, and so much more!

Episode 17: Confronting and Healing our Masculinity (Feat. Amadon Dellerba)

Today, Deconstruct welcomes Amadon Dellerba of the Get Real or Die Trying Podcast for the first installment of a new Deconstruct series on unraveling and healing from Toxic Masculinity.

Fitz and Amadon waste no time, diving straight into the nature of recognizing past toxicities. They talk about the mental preparation necessary to challenge toxicity, and practice the steps with deep vulnerability.

One the light side of the shadow, they talk about what it is to find genuine role models, and discuss some of their own. The conversation is expansive and personal, weaving these key narratives between collective care, the teachings of Jesus, and much more.

If you're a man who has lost their way, or a woman or nonbinary person dealing with a toxic figure, this episode may very well be worth your while.
