This episode is an audio recording of a conversation I had on June 2, 2020 with my husband Adam, my colleague Tasha and some current/former students who are passionate about social justice and human rights (Ganiyat, Hannah, Ivana, Isabelle, Jayhan, Lizzy, Tayo, Aribim and Edward). We discussed systemic racism, micro aggressions, privilege, white fragility, intersectionality, performative allyship, getting comfortable with being uncomfortable, anti-racism and strategies for learning more information about these topics.
If anyone is interested in joining a book club to read "How to be an Antiracist" by Ibram X. Kendi and "The Skin We're In: A Year of Black Resistance and Power" by Desmond Cole please get in touch with me on instagram @thecalmpodcast or e-mail emily@thecalmpodcast.com.
