## Resource

Lurie breaks down an uncomfortable question: Are Black people, through generosity rooted in survival skills from enslavement, helping to create future 'Karens'? Starting with a viral incident where a white toddler received cake from a Black family's private birthday celebration, Lurie examines how centering whiteness may perpetuate entitlement. The conversation evolves into a broader analysis of what she calls the 'n-wordification of America'—how systems of oppression historically used against Black communities (healthcare deserts, educational defunding, police violence, surveillance, land theft) are now being applied to white Americans.
