Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Long Pause Explained Racism and Sexism in America

In that pregnant moment, everybody who was watching got to see how power and privilege work

Jackson started to answer. She said, β€œSenator.” And then she sighed. And then she paused. For a long time. As the silence filled the room, I felt like I could see Jackson make the same calculation nearly every Black person and ancestor has made at some point while living in the New World. It’s the calculation enslaved people made before trying to escape to freedom, or activists made before sitting down at the white lunch counter. But it’s also the calculation a woman makes before responding to the e-mail of the failson who was just promoted ahead of her, or the calculation I make when a white executive comments on my Twitter feed but not my published columns. It’s the calculation when black people try to decide: β€œAm I gonna risk it all for this?”

…

That pause, that moment, that clear difference in the range of human possibilities afforded to Jackson and Kavanaughβ€”that’s racism, folks. That’s sexism. That silence was a clearer definition of the thing than I could give in a thousand words. I can’t prove it, but I saw it. And Jackson saw it. And Booker saw it. And Padilla saw it. And I can only hope that people of good faith and decency saw it too.

Because if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Bass. Face.

I’ve been going through photographs to help tell the story of the past ten years at TPU. I came across this video I didn’t remember, just a little al fresco bass practice, with some free improv and a bass line for “Night and Day.” Have to work on the upright some more. Okay, FINE, a LOT MORE!

Jazz Night School Combo at the Royal Room

My Jazz Night School Combo had the opportunity to perform at the Royal Room on Friday, March 18. I love playing music with real live people!! This event was fun and looking forward to more as the pandemic continues to ease.

Wordle, the Brain, and Unconscious Bias

Wordle 251 3/6

⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜
⬜⬜🟨🟩⬜
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

I’m wondering how the brain works. I frequently have the correct Wordle answer provided to me by my brain. I feel stuck. I’m not consciously working through all the options. I mean, sometimes I’m trying to do that, and then what turns out to be the correct word just … pops up. That happened again playing today’s game.

We only use a small portion of our brain for conscious thought. The rest of our brain works quietly on our behalf without us being in actual control. That may have something to do with it. In the case of Wordle, my brain looks through all the possible choices and serves up a good answer without me knowing that it’s happening. Deep!

Perversely, I think this may also demonstrate how unconscious bias works. I swear I’m not biased in my thinking. I’m not aware. However, my hidden brain is biasing my thinking without even letting me know. Make sense?

What do you think? What’s your experience?

Writer Blocked

I want to get back to writing. I feel like I have many stories to tell, but I frequently end up scrawling β€œ#NoIdeas” or β€œno profound thoughts” in my journal. Work has been distracting, news of our politics hasn’t helped, and music has become more of a priority.

I came up with a possible way to get started: write a piece entitled, β€œPreface to a 20,000-word something-or-other.” Then I thought, don’t plagiarize someone else’s title, fool! That someone was Amiri Baraka, and his poem is a masterpiece:

Preface to a Twenty Volume Suicide Note

for Kellie Jones, born 16 May 1959

Lately, I’ve become accustomed to the way
The ground opens up and envelopes me
Each time I go out to walk the dog.
Or the broad edged silly music the wind
Makes when I run for a bus…

Things have come to that.

And now, each night I count the stars,
And each night I get the same number.
And when they will not come to be counted,
I count the holes they leave.

Nobody sings anymore.

And then last night, I tiptoed up
To my daughter’s room and heard her
Talking to someone, and when I opened
The door, there was no one there…
Only she on her knees, peeking into

Her own clasped hands.

Amiri Baraka

Can’t match that!! I’ll keep working on my writing.

Feeding without the frenzy!

Happy Static Electricity Day

My first day at Tacoma Power and TPU was January 9, 2012.

I didn’t apply at first. The headhunter called me a second or third time and told me there was more to the job than the way it had been described. I thought for sure I’d blown the interview by speaking my truth instead of giving the answer they wanted to hear. It took a few weeks before they contacted me, but I got the job. Flew to SeaTac. Started the job.

I didn’t realize it at the time, but January 9 is Static Electricity Day. Looking back, it’s clear that I’ve been causing static at the electric company for ten whole years. I’ve got some stories to tell. Stories about:

  • Success
  • Failures
  • Lessons learned
  • Books read
  • Books and ideas shared
  • Presentations given
  • Training taken and shared
  • Workshops facilitated
  • Relationships developed and deepened
  • Wonderful 1on1 conversations (I like those the best!)

I really needed the job, and it came along at just the right time. But it wasn’t just about the money.

In the last ten years, we’ve saved millions for our customers. We’ve worked hard at innovating, maybe more than the organization could take advantage of. And building a strong, cohesive, and caring team. The work has been challenging, but I like challenges. It’s been gratifying.

My first boss, the one who hired me, asked me a question as he was about to retire, a trick question: “Can you thrive here?” I really wish I’d answered with a question. Sometimes a question is a suggestion, in this case, that maybe I’m in the wrong place. Alas, I answered instead of asking.

Thriving takes work, and I’ve really worked at it. There have been a lot of ups and some seriously down downs. And I’m still standing. Still causing static.

You know, #workingonit!!!

My Nguzo Mbili (Two Principles)

Kuumba (Creativity)

To do always as much as we can, in the way that we can, in order to leave our community more beautiful than when we inherited it.

Imani (Faith)

To believe with all our heart in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders, and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.

It strikes me now that Kuumba and Imani are my favorite Nguzo Saba principles, maybe because creativity feels like such an act of faith. We try to create, not knowing our creativity’s impact on others or us. We will something new into existence, resistance notwithstanding, and our faith pulls us through.

I love how, back when I celebrated Kwanza in community with others, our celebration of Kuumba led us right into Imani at midnight. It seemed almost like magic!

My 2022 Wishes for you:

#HappyAndSafeNewYear!!!
#StayCreative!!!
#KeepTheFaith!!!
