There is one practice that makes having conversations around race so much easier: grace. We are a society that heavily lacks any form of grace when it comes to conversations around racism. American society right now functions more like a mob looking for the next person to make a spectacle of instead of simply having hard conversations. Grace doesn't excuse behavior. Grace isn't a pass to ignore injustice and skip empathy. But it is a key practice that we all must give and receive if we want to move the conversation forward.
