When our psychological projections take a hold of us, they can distort our reality and lead us down dark paths.

In honest and open discussion, we meet with director Nick August-Perna, whose controversial documentary, "Tell Them You Love Me," has set off a firestorm. Rutgers professor Anna Stubblefield claimed to unlock Derrick Johnson through facilitated communication.

Debate erupted about whether Johnson, a nonverbal Black man with cerebral palsy, could give consent. Was this true love, or an abuse of power? Race, informed consent, the personal autonomy of people with intellectual disabilities, and overwhelming archetypal dynamics must be grasped to understand the complex forces at work in their relationship, and the reactions others felt when it was discovered.

This clip is from the latest TJL episode, "Is it Love or Abuse of Power? Shadow and Archetype in TELL THEM YOU LOVE ME." Watch the full episode here: youtu.be/qsyXXDXHNoc
