O TYM PODKAŚCIE 🔗
Committed to Misunderstanding is a podcast about history, accountability, and human behavior. Hosted by therapist Chuck Lenahan, the show examines erased histories and the patterns that allow harm to continue long after violence ends. Through a clinical lens and rigorous research, each episode explores how denial, minimization, and narrative control shape what we remember—and what we avoid. This isn’t sanitized history or performative outrage. It’s an examination of how societies justify harm, resist repair, and pass unfinished business forward.

Twenty episodes. Five arcs. One verdict.
This season I built a case — Erasure, Extraction, Enforcement, Narrative, Responsibility — using primary sources, federal records, and receipts that have been sitting in the public record for decades. In this finale, I deliver the verdict the evidence requir…
For four hundred years, this country has handed Black America the wrong diagnosis. Not a character problem. Not an inferiority problem. A misdiagnosis, built into policy, enforced through law, and compounded through every generation that inherited the consequences.

In the 1890s, Callie House organized 300,000 people — mostly poor Black women — to petition Congress for reparations for formerly enslaved Americans. The federal government charged her with mail fraud. The theory: organizing for reparations was fraudulent because the government was never going to p…
In 1988, Ronald Reagan signed the Civil Liberties Act — the formal government apology and $20,000 payment to Japanese American internment survivors. His signing statement made the case: military service, wrongful government action, a mistake that deserved repair.
Every single element of that argu…
In 1951, Harvey Clark rented an apartment in Cicero, Illinois. He had a signed lease and a federal injunction. A mob of 4,000 burned his building down. Then the grand jury indicted him.
That is not a story about one man. That is the enforcement mechanism doing its job.
Episode 17 documents the ra…
Seven years ago I met the man I was going to marry. I learned pretty quickly — because he is a very proud Black man — what I did not know.
I had spent most of my life in a very red, very white, very homogenous town. I knew I had gaps. I did not know how deep they were.
Four years later I started th…
Picture a track. White runners start at the standard line. Black and brown runners start two hundred yards back. Same finish line. Same judges. And when the results come in, the people running the track say the Black and brown runners just didn't want it badly enough.
Nobody mentions the two hund…
In 1995 a political scientist named John DiIulio predicted a coming wave of violent juvenile crime. He called them super predators. The term went everywhere — politicians, prosecutors, the press.
Hillary Clinton used it at a campaign event in 1996. The crime bill infrastructure was already in plac…
Linda Taylor was a real person. A woman in Chicago, convicted of welfare fraud in 1977. The documented amount she collected fraudulently was somewhere between eight and twenty-three thousand dollars.
Ronald Reagan described her on the campaign trail as collecting a hundred and fifty thousand doll…
