Interrupting Racism Series: Exploring the Neurophysiology of Fear and Escalation

Here is the video promised in our previous post: "Breaking Down Karen (who seems to be having a breakdown).

Watch the first in our series on interrupting racism. Sarah Peyton and Mika Maniwa talk with Leonie Smith about the neurophysiology of fear and escalation through a frame by frame commentary of the viral video with Amy Cooper and Christian Cooper.

Errata: In the video, reference is made to Christian Cooper's sister being with him in the park. Christian Cooper's sister, Melody, was not in the park with him, but uploaded the video. We apologize for the misinformation.
