Antiracism for White Men Ready to Step Off the Sideline (DQ Solo)
Manage episode 263544957 series 2579437
#130: More and more white men are coming to me with a version of the following:
“It’s long overdue that I speak up against injustice and systemic oppression…
…but I don’t know where to begin.”
Now, I am not an expert or an authority in racial issues or antiracist practices.
But it is time to step off the sidelines.
So let’s have a candid conversation about how to do that.
Again, because I am no expert, the vast majority of what you’ll hear in this episode is me reporting from the experts:
- Authors
- Leaders
- Activists
- Anti-Racist Teachers
- And of Course, People of Color’s Lived Experiences
In this Episode
- Why the racial travesties of the last few weeks “feel so different” to the white community than previous travesties
- Why white men need to come off the sideline and be actively antiracist
- Why your grandchildren would be ashamed if you stayed on the sideline right now
- The 4 antiracist principles – informed by people of color – that I’m using to guide my journey
Resources:
- Trevor Noah YouTube Video: George Floyd, Minneapolis Protests, Ahmaud Aubrey, & Amy Cooper
- Anti-Racism Resources for White People
