Marcus reflects on the media’s reporting of the death of black men by the police and the broader underreported killings across the country, the media’s handling of this and how the left and right react.&nbsp;Marcus recommends the books we should read to build our insight and knowledge on the nature of racism. Toward the end of the discussion I seek Marcus’s perspective on meditation and the unifying principle of physics as he shares the latest thinking on the topic.&nbsp;</p><p>I hope you enjoy the thoughts, reflections and expansive imagination of Marcus G Miller.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Links to Social</strong></p><p><a href=\"http://imaginewithmarcus.com/mathandmusicwriting/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Website</strong></a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/marcustheartyst/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Instagram</strong></a></p><p><a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/user/124475571\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Spotify&nbsp;</strong></a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/artystandnyrd/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Facebook</strong></a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Links in the Show&nbsp;</strong></p><p><a href=\"https://www.amazon.com/Toni-Morrison/e/B000APT7NQ\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Toni Morrison&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSAemRxzmXM\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Wolfram Theory of Everything&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.huffpost.com/entry/zero-point-field_b_913831\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Zero Point Field&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQKELOE9eY4\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.amazon.com/Fire-Next-Time-James-Baldwin/dp/067974472X\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">James Baldwin&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://robindiangelo.com/publications/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Robin Diangelo&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://samharris.org/podcast/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Sam Harris&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwWhs_6x42TyRM4Wstoq8HA\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Trevor Noah</a></p><p><a href=\"https://policingequity.org/about/executive-team/phillip-atiba-goff-phd\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Dr Philip Atiba Goff Center For Policing Equity</a></p><p><a href=\"https://insighttimer.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Insight Timer&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40874325-the-shack\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Shack&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Three-Body_Problem_(novel)\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Three Body Problem&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CRISPR#:~:text=CRISPR%20(%2F%CB%88kr%C9%AA,had%20previously%20infected%20the%20prokaryote.\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Crispr</strong></a></p><p><a href=\"https://theimpossiblenetwork.com/podcast/merritt-moore/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Dr Merrit Moore&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Baptiste\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Jean Baptiste</a></p>","author_name":"Fabrica Collective"}
