MICHAEL PERRY

The founder of You Me We, an NPO devoted to providing resources and "fishing poles" to children in orphanages, institutions, and foster care, Michael Perry Clemons, opened my eyes to the issues surrounding the increase of children who have suffered abuse, trauma, or abandonment in Japan. His team's efforts are admirable and genuinely speak to the sanctity of life and how educating parents is crucial for children to survive and thrive. Michael also shares stories about his grandfather, mother, banking career, and how You Me We came to be. This is a robust conversation that inspires, hopefully, some self-reflection.IFCA (International Foster Care Association) www.ifcaseattle.org has shared with us two tools:The Permanency PactJapanesehttps://acrobat.adobe.com/link/track?uri=urn:aaid:scds:US:a7b53c59-480e-3933-8c79-07a9fdba96d4Englishhttps://acrobat.adobe.com/link/track?uri=urn:aaid:scds:US:7fdfa459-4a05-32b8-bf89-93e4ab320e4a

YOU ME WE - Michael Perry Clemons - Lance E. Lee Podcast

Perry Clemons (He/His) is an African-American third-grade teacher from Harlem, N.Y. He has created a board game called Inequality-opoly: The Board Game of Structural Racism and Sexism in America. Inequality-opoly is a custom property trading game that transforms recent national studies into a perspective-taking experience. In this game like, in the real world, certain players based on their perceived identity enjoy privileges while others face obstacles to building wealth. The mission of Inequality-opoly is to spread awareness and advance discourse about the effects of Structural Racism and Sexism in America. The objective of Inequality-opoly is to battle with or benefit from Structural Racism and/or Sexism to become the wealthiest player and partnership by buying, renting, developing property, and (most importantly) making deals. Whichever player or partnership has the most wealth at the end of the game wins. The idea for Inequality-opoly came when Perry attended diversity, equity, and inclusion trainings. During these trainings, Perry noticed the difficulties the facilitators faced in demonstrating the effect of racial and gender discrimination in a way that is engaging and personalized to all the people in the room. As an educator for over a decade, he knows the best way to teach or reinforce something is to make it a game. He thought that gamifying diversity training would make for deeper understanding and richer discussions. After 3 years of research, development, and playtesting, Inequality-opoly is now for sale thanks to a successful Kickstarter and Indiegogo campaign at www.inequalityopoly.com
