In this clip from Social Justice Origin Stories, Arc Telos Saint Amour speaks on the profound impact of shame and its role in preventing introspection and personal growth. Using a case study from an old reality TV show, they explore how ingrained behaviors from socialization influence actions and perpetuate harm.
In their storytelling, they emphasize the key to breaking the cycle lies in confronting and taking ownership of our harmful behaviors. They share that actual progress requires opening the “box of shame” to foster learning, growth, and forward movement on the path of social justice.
Their full episode: “Unpacking The Box of Shame is available on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and wherever you get your podcasts.
