In this episode Carol is discussing racism, anti-racism and “becoming white” with Tim Wise, prominent speaker on mainstream media, and author of many books, including White Like Me. His own podcast is Speak Out with Tim Wise.
Tim Wise is a prominent white American anti-racist. Over years of seeing him on television and reading him, I’ve learned a great deal from Tim’s wisdom and his provocative style—humor is not lacking, is informative and at times quite fearless. Tim speaks often in colleges and on major media outlets as well. His book White Like Me is one of many by him but stands out for me also because of how personal he gets in it.
Our conversation includes the darker sides in us all and shows a more tender side of Tim. It includes as well, the frequently crippling costs of “becoming white” for immigrant groups, including Jews and including his own father. Tim is very psychologically oriented and sees therapy as something we all need.
