405. Damon Bruce On His New YouTube Show, Podcast Seth Everett
This week on Appraise The Phrase:
This show has a video version:
Mario and Twenty welcome Ian and Ace of ICW (InnerCity Weightlifting) to the Expression Appraisal Table.
To know or not to know? That is the question. Is Ignorance bliss to us all or just the first person to coin it?
Watch as Mario and Twenty are joined by ICW representatives Ian and Ace to discuss the meaning and origin of Ignorance Is Bliss. Who better to grade this life mantra than the organization that puts a spotlight on the negative effects of ignoring the sytemic issus that lie right in front of our faces. Ace gives his first hand perspective of the impact of the ignorance of a broken system on his journey to success and connects it to the phrase’s roots.
Ian is the Marketing Director at ICW and Ace is a participant and trainer. CW’s mission is to amplify the voice and agency of people who have been most impacted by systemic racism and mass incarceration.
