Podcasts about white fragility why it's so hard

In this episode of the Startup Selling Podcast, I interviewed Latane Conant.   Latané was instrumental in aligning sales and marketing in her previous position as CMO of Appirio, resulting in 5x more effective field marketing programs and a 300% increase in inbound leads.   Now as the Chief Market Officer of 6sense, Latané empowers revenue teams to compete and win in the age of account-based buying through 6sense’s solution — allowing them to uncover, prioritize, and engage with demand by uniting one common, AI-powered platform.    This allows them to know everything they need to know and do anything they need to do, ultimately generating 40% more opportunities, closing deals 2x faster, and winning 2x more often.    Some of the topics that Latane and I discussed in this episode are:   “The Dark Funnel” – The activity and research your buyers are doing before contacting the seller. Identifying which accounts are “in-market”. “New Inbound” – Get clear on the Ideal Customer Profile (ICP), the buyer’s intent, and focusing your marketing and sales effort on the account that are “in-pocket”. “In-pocket” – problem aware and solution aware.  The importance of demand capture versus demand gen. The value card and how you create content for the different buyers. The importance of using video and how you can create quick content.  How to leverage AI to create an amazing customer experience. The importance of orchestrating to create a positive experience for your buyer. The importance of the “next best action” with your prospects. Racial inequality and improvements we can all be making when it comes to diversity within our teams, customers, and community. Links & Resources   Rapid Adoption.

Here's a wayback-playback for you! Recorded about 18 months prior to this, this dose of Torrid Souls is the perfect follow-up to our last episode where we talked about your sexual wiring and how to feed that to have even better sex! In this episode, we recap the spontaneous and completely satisfying playtime we had at a private birthday party in a Victorian Mansion in Toronto. In typical Torrid Souls style, we recap the successes, the morning after. Join us in bed as we recount our encounter with a single guy we nicknamed Mr. Hips.  We met Mr. Hips at the party that night, and several hours of fun and many orgasms later, we were the last people to leave the party (somewhere around 4 am)! What we didn't know then was that we were describing our satisfaction with this play-session through what we now know as our sexual wiring. You'll get to to hear why the whole experience was such a total turn-on for Tori, as an Energetic, and how Soul, as a Sensual & a Sexual, enjoyed one mind-blowing orgasm after another. If you haven't yet listened to EP21- VIN2020: Tell Me What You Want. What You Really, Really Want, go find out what we're talking about.  Knowing your own sexual wiring and how to feed how others are wired is what makes sex for you, and them, even better.   Our Torrid Souls' Sexy Smart Bookshelf, features a book called "White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism"  We've partnered with Audible to allow you to download it as an audiobook for free: TorridSouls.com/book   Come discover your own torrid soul with us.  We'd love to hear from you!

This episode is an attempt to provide a way forward through conversations across race about the difficult topics of racism, white privilege, conscious and unconscious biases, how to identify them and how to address them. This episode is our effort to call in white people to increase their knowledge around racism in its historical and present contexts and engage in positive action to support Black Lives Matter. It also an attempt to extend an open hand in support of people of color. The Evolved Caveman is committed to anti-racism. This is an attempt to join with Black people and other people of color. Now is the time when we anti-racist white people need to commit to having intentional conversations with the people in our lives and on social media who might be conflicted about the protests because of the narratives of violence and looting outlined by those with other agendas. We need to start these uncomfortable, yet supremely important, conversations.

COMMUNITY IS EVERYTHING! Join the Joyful Courage Tribe in our community Facebook groups: Live and Love with Joyful CourageJoyful Courage for Parents of Teens ::: Today I am solo. I have a heavy heart this week, and a short show. I know I promised something on chores and allowance but you will have to wait a few weeks for that. This week I want to highlight a few shows that I have done in the past and offer up some resources to keep learning and growing as humans – because that is what my work si about – Joyful Courage is about embracing opportunities to grow, even when it’s messy and wobbly. As someone with an audience that is largely white women, I am going to step into THIS opportunity to share some thoughts and steps to be better. I am heartsick over here as I reach out to my friends who are also people of color, letting thme know that I see them and I stand with them. I am heartsick all the time when I think about the conversations that they need to have with their children that I will never need to have with mine, because of the color of their skin. I am heartsick when I consider the fear they hold every time their partner or child leaves the house. Enough. And white women… we have power. We have so much power. My intention here is to invite you in to your own learning about your power, about your implicit bias, about the conditioning that continues to lead us all through a system that is designed to lift only some of us. And I get it, where do we start? What do we do? It is uncomfortable, we don’t want to say the wrong thing, we don’t want to add to the hurt and the micro aggressions with our unintentional ignorance. But doing nothing and continuing to say nothing is not ok. Time to speak up. To stand up. To learn, to be corrected when we get it wrong and take it with humility. To be uncomfortable. Because guess what? The black people in this country have been uncomfortable since the beginning. They have been beaten down, silenced, abused, ridiculed, traumatized and more – since the beginning. We can be in the growing pain of learning to be better. Here are a few places to start. I shared these podcasts on my social media this week – be sure to check them out:   The first conversation is with Jason Frelot from Kids and Race. He and I discuss the role of parenting in dismantling racism, understanding whit privilege and so much more. Jason is an activity in Seattle and has created programs for parents AND kids that cultivate “socially responsible and culturally aware children.” Listen: http://www.joyfulcourage.com/podcast/78 I would also like to share my conversation with Danielle Slaughter from Mamademics. Danielle is the mom of two boys and an academic. She writes a brutally honest blog called Mamademics and also offers powerful courses through her site, Raising and Advocate. Follow her, learn from her, support her work. Listen: http://www.joyfulcourage.com/podcast/151 ⠀ And more recently I invited my friend, Yolanda Williams onto the podcast to discuss her work with the Parenting Decolonized Podcast and her powerful group for black families working towards conscious parenting, Conscious Parenting Time. Yolanda is a powerhouse in the intersection of race and parenting in America. Follow her, listen to her. Listen: http://www.joyfulcourage.com/podcast/223 IF you love consuming content through audio, here are the two books that I am working through: White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism by Robin Diangelo So You Want to Talk About Race by Ijeoma Oluo (Ijoma Aloo) There are so many others out there as well – do your research and consume to learn. Other podcasts that I would encourage you to subscribe to are: Parenting Decolonized Parenting and Politics Codeswitch SEEK OUT people to follow and learn from on SM – a few that I appreciate are: Austin Channing Brown Rachel Elizabeth Cargle The Conscious Kid And of course the people highlighted in the shows above.

Why do you do business the way that you do? Are you creating the impact that you want from your work? If you haven’t asked yourself these questions, today’s episode is for you. We will be diving into how you can get your values to align with your business and most importantly, how you show up. We will explore how you can create more diversity and inclusion for people of all races, sexual orientations, and genders.   I wanted to have someone on that is helping lead the way in this line of work. That’s why I had this conversation with Trudi Lebron. Trudi is helping companies through coaching and consulting to create social impact initiatives.

Trudi and I talk about the power that comes from working with diverse teams. We talk about how her temperament led her to this business venture. She explains how business is a vehicle that can change people’s lives. This episode could be a catalyst for impactful change within your business.

Being a woman in corporate spaces isn’t great and research shows that women from marginalized identity groups have exponentially worse experiences - no matter the region, industry, or function.  It's important those in the dominant group take the time to listen to our experiences, accept that they’re real, and fix it. It won’t happen overnight, but we have to stop trying to fix the people and fix broken cultures, processes, and institutions that uphold the “isms”.On this episode, our guest, Victoria Walters, M.A. shares her experiences and hacks she's leveraged to navigate. She even drops some ways "majoritized" folks can help, along with some light reading noted below. Layla F.

Let It Go, Idina Menzel, from Andy’s favorite film: Frozen (2013) Toxic Masculinity is what David hints at when he talks about the pressures men often feel in our current societal norms. Wikipedia says “The concept of toxic masculinity refers to certain cultural norms that are associated with harm to society and to men themselves. Traditional stereotypes of men as socially dominant, along with related traits such as misogyny and homophobia, can be considered "toxic" due in part to their promotion of violence, including sexual assault and domestic violence. The socialization of boys often normalizes violence, such as in the saying "boys will be boys" with regard to bullying and aggression.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxic_masculinity White fragility and oppression are described in this great resource: Robin DiAngelo, White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism (Beacon Press, 2018).

podcast episode 1 - She's an American academic, lecturer, and author working in the fields of critical discourse analysis and whiteness studies - her book "White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism" has been a US bestseller and provoked an uncomfortable conversation in the USA on what it means to be white. And for Episode No1 of the "We need to talk about Whiteness Podcast", Dr Robin DiAngelo joins me for a conversation about how the term is slowly gaining currency in the UK, whether it is transferable, from a US context and why these conversations continue to feel so thorny. Enjoy!

I don’t remember how I stumbled upon Embrace Race, but I am so happy I did. If you are not familiar with it, it is a multiracial community of parents, teachers, experts, and other caring adults who support each other to meet the challenges that race poses to our children, families, and communities. We welcome your participation. I reached out to the Co-Founders Melissa and Andrew because I believe that while the work they are doing is invaluable for people who already have kids, people who don’t can still benefit greatly from their platform. On one of the worksheets they have on their site, they say that talking about race, finding the right words and coming at it from a point of real understanding is like flexing a muscle. It doesn’t happen overnight. We can just expect to watch a video and be prepared to teach our children about equity and discrimination. We need to be working on that now and always. As we are seeing that US racial divisions and inequities grow, Embrace Race is helping people start wherever they are and reverse this trend in our homes, schools, and communities. Melissa and Andrew and kind enough to tell me that they admire the work that I am doing but I am nowhere near where I want to be and there are so many people out there doing much more impactful work in their communities like Melissa and Andrew so I hope you have the chance to listen to this episode. It is longer than my previous ones so break it up if you need to, but I hope you do listen to it! Please also spread the word about Embrace Race and check out their site below for more incredible resources they are constantly adding on there! Main takeaways: Clarity on terms including: race, explicit vs. impact racism, and micro-agressions. Listen to your child. Don’t shush them or make any topic taboo. Kids notice how adults react to things. Start flexing that muscle, talk about race in your community, and surround yourself with diverse people in your community. Melissa and Andrew mention these books, organizations, and people: -White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism by Robin DiAngelo and Michael Eric Dyson -White Kids: Growing Up with Privilege in a Racially Divided America by Margaret Hagerman -Showing Up for Racial Justice -Parenting in the Age of Trump with Dr. Allison Briscoe-Smith You can find Melissa and Andrew here: Embrace Race Embrace Race on Facebook Thank you so much for listening! I would love to know what you thought about this episode and what some of your main takeaways were! Natalie --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/notamamayet/support

What does whiteness mean? If you're a white person, the occasions on which you've thought about it might be few. If you're a person of color, the time you spend reckoning with its meaning & consequences are likely far too many. Today's episode of Simplify is an invitation to grapple with what white means in the world, and how to have more generative, revelation-ready mindsets and conversations about racism as a system. As a Racial Justice Educator, Robin DiAngelo exhorts white people to consider what their skin color means on a cultural, economic, political, and personal level. She's written *White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Race* as an educational tool for white people who want to be better allies, inspect their biases, and find their way out of a racist system that continues to do harm.

What does whiteness mean? If you're a white person, the occasions on which you've thought about it might be few. If you're a person of color, the time you spend reckoning with its meaning & consequences are likely far too many. Today's episode of Simplify is an invitation to grapple with what white means in the world, and how to have more generative, revelation-ready mindsets and conversations about racism as a system. As a Racial Justice Educator, Robin DiAngelo exhorts white people to consider what their skin color means on a cultural, economic, political, and personal level. She's written White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Race as an educational tool for white people who want to be better allies, inspect their biases, and find their way out of a racist system that continues to do harm.

I’m honored to share this episode of the Mother’s Quest Podcast, the second in a series I’m recording for the Women Podcasters in Solidarity Initiative on the subject of gun safety and the intersectional impact of gun violence on our communities. As the mother of two boys, I was interested in having a conversation with an expert on this subject who’s also a man and a father and I’m so grateful to have found one willing to go deep and be vulnerable in gun prevention advocate Ladd Everitt.   Ladd has been involved in this movement since 1993, when his life changed forever after a man boarded a rush hour train on the Long Island Railroad and opened fire with a handgun, killing six and wounding 19. This train was the one Ladd took regularly and he realized that it easily could have been him killed that day.   That moment sparked Ladd to attend the Million Mom March in 2000 in Washington DC, where despite the fact that he was a single man with no children, he found himself stepping into leadership for a local chapter and working alongside mothers for gun safety.   More than two decades later, he has become a father himself, and is still deeply committed to this work. After 10 years as a strategic communications and social media specialist with the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence, Ladd took the position he holds today as Director of One Pulse for America, a gun violence prevention group established after the Florida Pulse Nightclub shooting by acclaimed actor/LGBTQ rights activist George Takei.    Ladd brought honesty and clarity to the conversation as we traced his E.P.I.C. life journey, from growing up as a young boy influenced by Marvel comics, to stepping into his own powers as a caring father and a decades long gun control advocate.   I appreciated Ladd’s humility as he expressed how the trauma of doing this work has impacted him, his own growing pains as he’s learning about and confronting racism and patriarchy, and the importance of giving the microphone and following the lead of young people, who he says are the emotional and cultural leaders of the movement today.     Ladd leaves us with hopefulness about the possibility for real change after the mid-term elections along with a challenge to hold our elected officials accountable, beginning with a specific request of Nancy Pelosi to focus on new and bold, not watered down, gun policy changes.  I was inspired by the example in Ladd of a white male leader, connected to his emotions, doing meaningful work, and looking for ways to share his privilege and influence with voices that should have more representation in the movement. Ladd and I both left the conversation feeling enriched by the opportunity to talk through complex issues. I’m excited to invite you in to listen with us and then move into action for gun safety alongside us.  Much appreciation,  Julie Neale P.S. Know someone who you think would appreciate this episode?

This week on Protégé Podcast, I devote a full episode to reviewing Robin DiAngelo's bestselling book "White Fragility - Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism." Written by a white person primarily for a white audience, "White Fragility" is a powerfully honest and unflinching look at why and how white Americans deflect, deny, and disrupt most attempts at truth-telling about race. In my review, I analyze how DiAngelo's book also offers insightful perspectives about how professionals of color can navigate the sometimes treacherous racial landscape at work. 

Complete show notes are below the description. Racism has been a sad part of the human story for a long time. After slavery was finally abolished in the United States in 1865, it took a hundred years for governments to make formal legal equality real -- and still, social segregation, ethnic discrimination and systemic prejudice continue today. It might even be getting worse. What is racism all about in our age of rising white nationalism and the re-emergence of identity politics, and what can we do about it? Ben is in St. John's, Newfoundland, to get to the bottom of it with Professor Sulaimon Giwa of Memorial University. What on Earth is Going on: Podcast Episode 26. Show Notes Episode 26: What on Earth is Going on with Racism?  Notes on the Conversation Ben and Sulaimon discuss the meaning and manifestations of racism, especially in the often-overlooked and downplayed Canadian context. In addition, they hit upon the following: Racisms (plural), identity politics, cultural appropriation and privilege Diversity of thought as well as background in academia The built-in prejudices of a society that is increasingly data-driven The concept of truth and truths as distinct from fact The interesting idea of leveraging white identity Racism and identity in the local context of St. John’s and Newfoundland About the Guest Dr. Sulaimon Giwa is an Assistant Professor of Social Work at Memorial University of Newfoundland, where he teaches graduate and undergraduate courses in Critical Thinking and Reflection, Social Justice, and Social Work Practice. His doctoral research explored the experiences of, and resilience (including coping strategies) of gay men of colour, to racism. It received the runner-up distinction for the Barbara Godard Prize for the best York University dissertation in Canadian Studies. Dr. Giwa holds a Diploma in Law and Security Administration from Fleming College, with a specialization in Police Education; a Bachelor of High Honours in Criminology and Criminal Justice from Carleton University, with a concentration in Law and minor in Women’s Studies; a Master’s of Social Work from Carleton University, with a substantive focus on Social Policy and Administration; and a PhD in Social Work from York University, in the specialty areas of Race, Ethnicity, and Culture.  Dr. Giwa’s professional experience includes direct practice; research and policy work at the community and federal level, primarily in youth health promotions, community and organizational practice in diverse communities, corrections (including as a Community Parole Officer and Case Manager for Time for Change, a Crime Prevention Ottawa funded gang exit program), and policing. His applied research program and professional activities centralize critical race transformative pedagogies and theories as frameworks and analytic tools for social justice and equity. His teaching and research interests are in the areas of race and sexuality; critical social work pedagogy; antiracism/oppression; and the criminal justice system. He has taught in the social work programs at Ryerson University and York University, and in the Police Foundations program at Sheridan College.

This week, we trace the evolution of black American cinema from blaxploitation in the 1970s to what we’re calling "blaxplaining" in 2018. While blaxploitation sought to showcase black actors in dramatic, action-packed films, today’s blaxplaining centers on the challenges of being black in America. We examine three films — "The Hate U Give," "Blindspotting" and "Sorry to Bother You" — and ask if they accurately depict aspects of contemporary black life, or instead merely seek to make some black experiences more palatable to white audiences.Discussed this week:"The Hate U Give" (directed by George Tillman Jr., 2018)"Blindspotting" (directed by Carlos López Estrada, 2018) "Sorry to Bother You" (directed by Boots Riley, 2018)"Coffy" (directed by Jack Hill, 1973)"Slaves" (directed by Herbert Biberman, 1969)"Sweet Sweetback’s Baadasssss Song" (directed by Melvin Van Peebles, 1971)"The Devil Finds Work" (by James Baldwin, 1976)"Lady Sings the Blues" (directed by Sidney J. Furie, 1972)"Mandingo" (directed by Richard Fleischer, 1975)"Jaws" (directed by Steven Spielberg, 1975)"Hammer" (directed by Bruce Clark, 1972)"Truck Turner" (directed by Jonathan Kaplan, 1974)"Shaft" (directed by Gordon Parks, 1971)"Blacula" (directed by William Crain, 1972)"Proud Mary" (directed by Babak Najafi, 2018)"The Equalizer 2" (directed by Antoine Fuqua, 2018)"White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism" (Robin DiAngelo, Beacon Press, 2018)"Super Fly" (directed by Gordon Parks Jr., 1972)"Dr. Black, Mr. Hyde" (Directed by William Crain, 1976)"Cotton Comes to Harlem" (Directed by Ossie Davis, 1970)"Mahogany" (Directed by Berry Gordy, 1975)"Dancing in the Moonlight" (Still Processing, 2016)

Robin DiAngelo, PhD, author of one of this year’s most important and thought-provoking books (New York Times Bestseller, “White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism”), sat down with us in St. Paul, Minnesota to go deep and challenge our sensitivities to race, privilege, power, and complicitness. Share this episode with family, friends, and colleagues. Listen to this conversation often to stay grounded in the collective work, learning, and unlearning we must do to put us further down a path of bound liberation.
