Throwback Thursday part 1! OK, it's been a while since we said that too… We are running back the “Racial Hierarchy” episodes for your .edu earphone pleasure. The acclaimed Dr. Liu joins us and breaks down white supremacy, how language changes to suit it, and how it's all systematized. This is a jam-packed episode; no notes can do it justice!We unmask how white supremacy and masculinity are inextricably linked, and how BIPOC men's identities and lives are policed through that lens. Get ready to hear how the construction of a complicit middle class allows for the superiority of whiteness. You get some important definitions this episode, including intersectionality and how it's changed over time, white supremacy, white privilege. What is hegemony, again? Dr. Liu covers it all.COMPANION PIECES:Relevant EpisodesBlack Masculinity, Mental Health, and Education#WAKANDAFOREVERWhite Supremacy to Google Said What?Referenced on this episode:White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack by by Peggy McIntosh"Demarginalizing the Intersection of Race and Sex: A black Feminist Critique of Anti-discrimination Doctrine, Feminist Theory and Antiracist Politics" by Kimberlé Crenshaw
This episode is a special one to me, one dedicated to all of the Black and Brown moms out there. A lot of my Black and Brown friends who are stay-at-home moms in the thick of it with tiny kiddos have told me that they feel like they're not doing enough to contribute to the anti-racism movement. For my friends and anyone else in this community who reads that and thinks “that's me!” I have a message for you that I hope you hear loud and clear: Being a Black or Brown stay-at-home mother is an act of resistance, an act that is SO IMPORTANT to the movement. Please note that I am not putting down working moms down at all! I AM a working mom, and my mom was a working mom. I just don't think Black and Brown moms in particular don't hear enough that they are part of the movement and that what they are doing in their homes is such an important act toward justice and anti-racism. Press play on the episode to hear more about what I mean. It's one you're not going to want to miss! Invite Jasmine to work with your school!

What does it practically mean to follow the peacemaking path of Jesus? In The Way of Peace, learn about the concept of a rule of life and discover flexible and achievable ways to walk this peacemaking path. __Rule #01 Choose love, forgiveness and inclusion: Daily choose to follow Jesus: walk the narrow path of loving mercy, doing justice, and living sacrificially.Rule #02 Listen to Wisdom: Daily listen to wisdom from Scripture, sacred writings and other sources to understand where peace is broken, and oppression is flourishingRule #03 Practice Mindfulness: Be attentive of the Divine Presence through unceasing prayerRule #04 Gather Together: Weekly join others to learn, celebrate and experience Divine LoveRule #05 Create Hope: Share faith while unselfishly giving and servingRule #06 Intentionally Rest: Receive divine grace and restoration through self-careWhat's the Issue Anyway?To be in someone's struggle is to be PROXIMATE.Proximity requires HUMILITY.Does my PRIVILEGE keep me from being PROXIMATE? “True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar, it comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.” –Martin Luther King, Jr.What Wisdom does Jesus offer us about Proximity and Humility?Jesus reiterates that we are to love GOD and love our NEIGHBOR! (John 10:27-28)Peter realized that God saw no BOUNDARIES. (Acts 10:28) We bring to the conversation some MISGUIDED beliefs. (John 10:29)The criteria for OUR LOVE is not race or religion—it is NEED. (John 10:30-35)The Way of Peace Rule #7Humbly Go: CROSS boundaries, LISTEN deeply and LOVE mercyHow can I live this in my everyday, normal life?ACKNOWLEDGE your privilege.Go where you are UNCOMFORTABLE.How does this make me a better person and the world a better place?I can choose to walk HUMBLY and be PROXIMATE.This will help bring PEACE and JUSTICE to the world.What is God inviting you into today?1. Read the article “White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack” by Peggy McIntosh.2. Make an invitation to coffee or a meal.3. Get involved with Partners in Hope through your time, talent and treasure.Thought provoking questions:1. Think about your race, gender, ethnicity, religion, primary language, ability, socioeconomic status, education level and sexual orientation. How do these specific aspects of your identity influence how you interact with others?2. What are the stereotypes you hold of the “other?” Why do you think you have those stereotypes? Is there room for a different narrative and perspective?3. Can you think of some other stories of Jesus modeling proximity and humility? With whom did he “break bread?”4. What are examples in which you have experienced people authentically sharing pain with you? What is your natural tendency when someone comes to you in pain? Are you inclined to a) offer solutions; b) say, “God is good, it will be ok;” or c) simply listen and create space for suffering?5. When you think about living a proximate life (whatever that might look like for you), what are the sacrifices that you would have to make? How do you feel about making those sacrifices?
Welcome to Season Two of Diversity Ever After: A Baker Donelson D&I Podcast. In this season, we will discuss “Privilege.” The initial response of many when someone says privilege might be white privilege, but during this season we will explore various kinds of privileges. We will uncover how many of us are likely benefitting from privilege by discussing how to recognize our own privilege. We will also discuss how we can use our privilege to help those who do not benefit from the same privilege we might benefit from. In this first episode of season two, Brenda Gadd, Founder and President of Rethink Public Strategies, joins our hosts to define privilege, highlight various kinds of privilege, and discuss the history of privilege including the need to risk losing our privilege for the benefit of others. We invite you to stay in touch and in tuned with this season as we explore privilege throughout our episodes this season.We release a new episode every other Friday. Look for our next episode on Friday, December 3.Our Hosts this Week:Nakimuli Davis-Primer, Shareholder(https://www.bakerdonelson.com/Nakimuli-Davis-Primer)Mary Wu Tullis, Shareholder(https://www.bakerdonelson.com/mary-wu-tullis)Brian Fernandez, Associate (https://www.bakerdonelson.com/brian-w-fernandez)Special Guest Host:Brenda Gadd, Founder and President of Rethink Public Strategies(https://rethinkpublicstrategies.com/)Resource Guide:For a handout with definitions of privilege: https://uca.edu/training/files/2017/11/Privilege-What-Does-It-Mean-Handout.pdfFor Peggy McIntosh's Paper, White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack:https://psychology.umbc.edu/files/2016/10/White-Privilege_McIntosh-1989.pdf

002 - Host Thomas Pierce is joined by longtime friend Tom King as they discuss their personal privilege and how systemic racism in the United States plays out in everyday life. The discussion is framed by the work of two anti-racism scholars, Dr. Peggy McIntosh and Dr. Robin DiAngelo. With plenty of comedic relief as the two laugh at the absurdity of white fragility, the two model what an honest conversation about race can look like. The second half of the episode broadens out into mental health and how men interact with each other as the pair identify some of the components that constitute toxic masculinity. The two model what a healthy relationship between two straight men can look like after years of friendship and honest conversations.Items Referenced: "White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack" and "Some Notes for Facilitators". © 1989 Dr. Peggy McIntosh " White Fragility and the Rules of Engagement" - Dr. Robin DiAngelo"Men and depression" - American Psychological Association 13th Amendment to the US ConstitutionFollow on Instagram here.

A Conversation Between African-American Author, Mark Winkler, and Dr. John Schinnerer This episode is an attempt to provide a way forward through the increasingly divisive topics of racism, white privilege, conscious and unconscious biases, how to identify them and how to address them. This episode is an effort to invite white people to come alongside black people; to increase their knowledge around racism; and to seek ways to take positive actions to support racial equality. 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 critical, conversations.

In this episode of #InVinoFab, Patrice and Laura are joined by a repeat guest (ep. 31), Kristin Roe, to talk about anti-racism education. We get real and talk about what diversity, equity, and inclusion work is -- and how to talk and really dig deeper into these issues. Instead of blaming the system or structure or event, we discuss how we recognize how our own whiteness, power, and privilege is only reinforced on the regular. This episode is not meant to be a checklist, but a way to challenge all of us to “get in shape” to have these awkward conversations. Some of the anti-racism work is not just a checklist, book, or training -- get comfortable with getting uncomfortable, get ready to reflect and unlearn, fumble & stumble as we move from education into daily practice and action.

Dr. Nfonsam is Professor in the Department of Surgery, Interim Chief of the Division of Surgical Oncology, and Program Director of the General Surgery Residency Program at the College of Medicine – Tucson.

We want to share our conversation, our experiences, and some things we've learned. We're all learning…and we all need to start having conversations like this. We hope you find this discussion helpful, enlightening, maybe even uncomfortable. Welcome some discomfort – maybe then we can learn, grow, and bring about change together.

For this episode, Lisa Dominguez Abraham joins us to discuss some of the racial disparities in public education that have been highlighted by coronavirus and social unrest. She invites all of us to consider how our position and privileges impact the people around us, recognizing that this might be a particular challenge for white parents who haven't previously considered themselves what Robin DiAngelo calls “part of a racially socialized group.” “I was taught to recognize racism only in individual acts of meanness by members of my group, never in invisible systems conferring unsought racial dominance on my group from birth.” - Peggy McIntosh, White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack, 1989 Although she's not an expert on these issues, Lisa shares her perspectives as a mom, community college English professor and Professional Development Coordinator. She believes parents help children locate themselves in terms of their relationships to their families, their communities, and the natural world, and that part of this awareness should include a consideration of their racial identity and privileges. While these topics might feel uncomfortable, parents can model for their children the way understanding oneself is a continual journey of personal growth and evolution. This episode is vulnerable and far from perfect, but we want to share more of these important conversations with you. If you have any feedback or questions about this episode, we would love to connect with you to further the conversation. Resources From This Episode: Lisa Dominguez Abraham: https://www.lisadominguezabraham.com/ --- Lisa Dominguez Abraham is an English professor at Cosumnes River College, a school that has been noted as one of the 10 most diverse community colleges in the nation.

For today’s podcast we sat down to have an amazing conversation with University of Georgia professor Dr.Rumya Putcha to discuss her research on the intersection between race, gender, systems of oppression and the politics of silence in the United States in general and how this shows up in wellness spaces in particular. We unpacked the ways in which we have come to often misuse the concept of self-care to avoid and turn away from difficult yet necessary conversations and the trauma caused when we allow ourselves to be silenced in the face of oppressive interactions and practices. Lastly we made sure to address what we have to do to navigate and recognize these realities while still holding space for our individual and collective racial healing.

A Think Queerly Podcast Discussion with Shawn BanksLast week I published a post on my Medium publication by Shawn Banks titled, "Why White Gay Men Have Ruined LGBTQ+ Pride Month For Me." My involvement in the comments raised a number of questions in me, so I asked Shawn if he would come on the podcast and have a conversation. We discussed the reasons that prompted him to write the article. He tells me that he was watching the momentum and social media focus on the Black Lives Matters demonstrations in the United States. Then in the first week of June (being Pride Month), he started to notice people he follows on social media shifting their focus more to Pride content and wanting to enjoy Pride without having to pay attention to everything else going on. He then realized that most of these people where white gay men.Show NotesWe speak about the various levels of white privilege (and why that’s a form of white supremacy), the intersectionality of “otherness”, and the significant difference between prejudice and racism;The challenge of activist fatigue, empathy avoidance, yet choosing to continue with the momentum of this movement towards improving lives for Black People and working towards greater equality;How social media (Instagram) is educating on missing Black history;How many white people don’t like being called out, even in general terms, about white privilege, prejudice, or racism, and;Why resistance to change is a reaction to a lack of prediction and response in our environment and what we can do to reduce the stress that causes.Shawn Banks is 25 years old and originally from Clinton, MD. He currently resides in Chicago, IL. By day, he’s a men's stylist and by night, he’s a stand-up comedian who has been performing in the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area for about a year. He considers myself a perpetual optimist who questions every facet of life and why we behave the way we do, which he displays in his sassy yet insightful style of stand-up. His Instagram is @Bankzzyyy (the only form of social media he uses consistently).Resources and further reading“White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack” — Peggy McIntosh“Party and protest: the radical history of gay liberation, Stonewall and Pride” — Huw Lemmey“Me and White Supremacy: Combat Racism, Change the World, and Become a Good Ancestor” — Layla F.

In this episode we pay attention to the deep and traumatic roots of Black Lives Matter and unpack the layers of how to respond effectively as individuals and within communities. I dialogue with mental health professional, Ornge trauma team lead and anti-racism trainer, Tom Walker. After the murder of George Floyd the public outcry continues to be a powerful voice that is awakening the world to the injustice of systemic racism that so many have turned their backs on for too long. At this critical moment while witnessing continued acts of social injustice and violence against Persons of Color – it is important that we take pause to understand what it means to Bear Witness while engaging in right action moving toward meaningful solutions. I am personally in awe of the continued courage and persistence of those directly participating in the Black Lives Matter protests happening in the U.S. and around the world. Those who are putting their voices and actions forward, are speaking out clearly about what has to change in our perceptions, in our daily actions and in the way we create societies that will truly respect and include everyone with dignity and equality. It is no doubt, hard for many to focus and listen deeply to the painful voices of the #BlackLivesMatter movement. There is much shame in "white privilege" and there is longing for some to turn away. It is important to address one's own views and be uncomfortable with the reality of racism in our lives. This is the moment to grapple with the reality of our inaccurate perception of being "nice normal folks, in a nice normal world". This is simply not always true, and with this limited perspective we may fail to see the experiences of friends, neighbours and colleagues that are confronted with racism every day. We will discuss and explore: Why #Black lives Matter accurately represents the issue and Why "All Lives Matter" phase is a distraction. What #Defund the Police, actually means and how it could benefit all including policing services. Michael Moore does a great job explaining this. Also related is "8 Anti-Racism Policing Policies that cannot wait". What the Anti-Racism Experts like Reni Eddo-Lodge, Robin DeAngelo, and Resmaa Menakem (author of Notice the Rage; Notice the Silence" ongoing.org) have to say. What White Fragility is (Robin DeAngelo coined the phrase) and knowing when it strikes. Using "Love, Kindness and Wisdom" to help us through this. Resmaa Menakem provides incredibly meaningful guidance on this. Why Anitifa is NOT the same as #Black Lives Matter and why you need to know this.

The first of many future conversations starts this week. As an industry, we need to admit that we've failed. And that change is overdue.

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.

“For me, I believe that Black lives matter. That’s what I said. Anyone with a functioning brain understands that all lives matter. Anybody. But right now there is a portion of our community that is frustrated, and they are suffering, and they are hurting. So, as an empathetic Christian I’m gonna go and say I agree with the statement Black lives do matter. But I was glad some people disagreed with me, because I kept saying, do Black lives matter yes or no? yes but…I’m like there is no but. We disagree. Those are the same type of people that would have interrupted Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus would have been like, blessed are the poor…no Jesus blessed are all people. Since when does highlighting one issue disparage another? Are we not secure enough to be able to sit here and go issue by issue and talk about one without disparaging another? Of course all lives matter, but it’s okay to say Black lives matter. What’s wrong with you? This is not rocket science. All lives matter. No kidding. That’s why Black lives matter, because until all lives matter equally, we need to focus on this.” -Carl Lentz, 2016 This is the most important episode I will ever release. I hope you approach it with an open heart. Just recently: George Floyd was murdered by a police officer while three other police officers stood by and did nothing. Breonna Taylor was in her home in the middle of the night when police broke in, unannounced, and shot her to death. Ahmaud Arbery was out for a run when two men chased him and shot him to death. Christian Cooper was bird watching in Central Park when a woman threatened to call the police and say that an African American man was threatening her life. He was not. It doesn’t stop there. The following Black men and women have been murdered by police: Philando Castile Atatiana Jefferson Eric Reason Natasha McKenna Botham Jean Walter Scott Bettie Jones Tamir Rice Michael Brown Dominique Clayton Eric Garner Trayvon Martin Tanisha Anderson Sandra Bland Freddie Gray THESE ARE JUST THE NAMES WE KNOW. Do you know how hard it is to find a full list of Black people who have been murdered at the hands of police brutality? Here’s a brief history of the Black lives lost in our country over the past few years along with the #Blacklivesmatter gaining momentum: · 2013: #Blacklivesmatter first appears on twitter · 7/17/14: Eric Garner dies in NY after being arrested · 8/9/14: Michael Brown is killed during an encounter with police officer in Ferguson, MO. · 11/22/14: Tamir Rice is killed by police in Cleveland while playing with a toy gun · 11/24/14: Announcement that there will be no indictment in Michael Brown case · 4/19/15: Freddie Gray dies in Baltimore while in police custody · 6/17/15: Charleston church shooting kills 9 people · 7/13/15: Sandra Bland is found hung in Texas jail cell STATS · 99% of killings by police from 2013-2019 have not resulted in officers being charged with crime. · Unarmed Black people were killed by police at 5x the rate of unarmed white people in 2015. · Police killed at least 104 unarmed Black people in 2015— nearly 2x a week. · 1 in 3 young Black men will be incarcerated in their life (compared to 1 in 17 white men). · 13TH DOC: “The film’s premise is that while the 13th Amendment to the Constitution eliminated slavery and involuntary servitude, it in effect had an unintentional loophole that asserted “except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted.”” · Black people make up 6.5% of the American population but make up 40.2% of the prison population. · Our prison population went from less than 200k in 1970 to 2.3m today. This is what we refer to when we talk about mass incarceration. THERE ARE PROVEN STRATEGIES that significantly reduce police killings, but very few Police Departments have adopted them. These are: Requirements that officers use all means other than shooting (decreases death by 25%) Requires all use of force be reported (decreases death by 25%) Bans chokeholds + strangleholds (decreases death by 22%) Has use of force continuum (decreases death by 19%) Requires de-escalation (decreases death by 15%) Duty to intervene if another officer uses excessive force (decreases death by 9%) Restricts shooting at moving vehicles (decreases death by 8%) Requires warning before shooting (decreases death by 5%) *You can call your local representatives and demand these 8 things be instituted with your local law enforcement. Want to learn more? Click here: https://8cantwait.org WHY DO BLACK LIVES MATTER? My Personal Reckoning: 2016 · I didn’t realize my own white privilege for a long time. I felt better than the other white people when it came to bias and racism because I grew up in a broken home filled with drugs, addiction, affairs, and even lived in a town where I was a minority. The reality is I have loved Black culture for most of my life, but I have done very little to be an advocate for justice for my Black brothers and sisters. I’m so sorry for this. · I received a DM from a Black woman who encouraged me to diversify who I was interviewing on The Refined Woman. Almost all of my collaborations and interviews for the first few years of The Refined Woman were with white women. I was a white girl blogger. · In 2016 I also wrote an All Lives Matter blog post that fortunately never went live. I didn’t understand what it meant that Black Lives Matter. As a Christian I assumed didn’t all lives matter? Thank God I have a team, and thank God I didn’t go live with that painful article. I was very, very wrong. Black Lives Matter, and here’s why: Jesus was a 1st Century Palestinian Jewish man. He had brown skin and was hated by the religious, and beaten and killed by law enforcement. If he was alive today in America, he’d be a minority immigrant who probably wouldn’t step foot inside white evangelical churches except to flip over tables. The Western Evangelical Church in America has become a religion for rich, advantaged, and privileged white people—which is the exact opposite of the roots of Christianity and the life of Jesus. Jesus hung out with the oppressed people of society, those ostracized, those who didn’t feel safe in the church—those who were judged and cast off. He fought for justice, restored dignity and humanity from the woman at the well, woman caught in adultery, to touching people with contagious diseases and engaging with people outside of the Jewish law which would have made him unclean in Jewish circles. But he didn’t care, because He was on a mission to do God’s work. Friend, if you are a follower of Jesus and do not have a heart for justice, racial reconciliation and to see the systemic walls, pillars, and foundations of racism in our country to be dismantled, you are out of alignment with the heart of God. Who does Jesus care about? - Prodigal Son returns: the jealous brother instead of the father rejoicing over the return + safety of his son. But don’t I matter—OF COURSE YOU MATTER, BUT YOUR BROTHER WAS LOST + NOW IS FOUND. - Luke 15: Jesus leaves the 99 to go after the one sheep. He cares about the individual. It’s time to get back in touch with the heart of Jesus. Do all lives matter? YES. But until Black lives matter—we better go after that. Jesus went after the one. What can you do? #1: Acknowledge If we don’t heal our past, it will follow us. And ours is HAUNTING US. -Kat Harris 1. Until we acknowledge the experience of what it means to be a Black person in America there is no chance at healing. 2. When someone dies, you show up. 3. “I don’t know the full story.” You don’t have to. 4. “People are just reposting for attention…not for the right reasons.” You don’t know their hearts. And so what? Does that mean you get to stay silent? 5. Here’s what’s true: in 1619 was when the first wave of Black people were kidnapped from Africa to become slaves in Jamestown. July 4th isn’t a celebration of independence for Black people. They weren’t free when those freedom bells rang. America was built on the backs of terrorism and genocide and slavery of Black people, people of color and indigenous people. 6. If we don’t heal our past, it will follow us. And ours is HAUNTING US. 7. We have to look back before we can move forward. 8. One of the first things we can do is acknowledge our white privilege. What is white privilege and how do you know if you have it? Go through these statements. #2: Get Curious I STARTED NOTICING + GETTING CURIOUS: · Why did I have so few Black friends? · Why were there some Black people and people of color at my church but none on staff or leadership or in the decision-making rooms? · I changed churches because I wanted to be a part of a community with women in leadership, then I noticed almost every week at church I could count on one hand the number of Black people at my church…why? · Why were influential Black Christian people like Lecrae + Andre Henry leaving the church? · How come at my favorite salad place every single person in line buying was white and all the people working in the buffet are Black? · How come the expensive gym I had a membership to had mostly white members, and yet almost every single one of the people working there from front desk to maintenance are Black? · This started making me very uncomfortable. I didn’t know what to do—so I’d talk with my friends about it…but really I didn’t do much about it. I deeply regret this. #3: PRAY + REPENT: · When have you been complicit, silent, and chosen ignorance out of comfort and convenience? Write it down, say it out loud, pray, and repent. · Psalm 13 is great to walk through lament. · Psalm 51 is great to walk through repentance. #4: ACTIVATE: · Sign petitions for racial justice. change.org is a great start for this! · Talk with friends and family. · When you see racism, call it out. · Post on your platforms. · Call your local representatives and demand justice. · Support Black-owned businesses. · Donate to Historically Black Colleges and Universities. · Go to https://www.grassrootslaw.org to find out how you can support policing and justice in America. · Read this: 75 Things White People Can Do for Racial Justice by Corinne Shutack #5: ORGANIZATIONS TO SUPPORT: · Equal Justice Initiative (Bryan Stevenson) · Be the Bridge (Latasha Morrison) and her wonderful resource page, “Where Do I Start?” · WhereChangeStarted.com has a great anti-racism starter kit · The Innocence Project · To help pay bail for protestors in NYC, money can be Venmo’ed to @bailoutnycmay. · City-specific bailouts. · ACLU · NAACP · UNCF #6: READ: “Stop asking us to give you books. Stop asking us to do research. Listen y’all were able to do mathematic equations through some Black women and then your own stuff and to be able to go to the moon, and put a flag in it and dance around and do the west coast strut. How in the world can you go from the earth to the moon and you can’t do research on the racial history that we need to fight in this country. I don’t want to be traumatized by teaching you history. I want you to grow up in your spiritual maturity, and grow up in your faith, and go on the sanctifying journey of overriding the patriotic way that we’ve learned history in America.” - Pastor Eric Mason 1.

While we do our best to make this a light-hearted comedy show, sometimes we need to talk about real subjects such as the inequality and racism plaguing our country. In this episode, we revisit my mom's experience with Rodney King and share our hopes and personal plans to improve our society. We recognize this is a scary time for many, so we also include some humor related to my mom's upcoming hysterectomy, my desire to touch a finger, and someone getting freaky with a mailbox. If you are white and wanting to learn what we can do during this time, please take a look at this article of 75 Things White People Can Do for Racial Justice.

Hi, everyone! Because S&W is recorded in advance and only releases every other week, we often don't get to comment on current events.

Inspired by the book "Me and White Supremacy: Combat Racism, Change the World, and Become a Good Ancestor" by Layla F. Saad, I will critically view the ways in which I am affected by and also perpetuate white supremacy. Today's topic is on White Privilege. "In order to dismantle white supremacy, you must understand how much white privilege is a key aspect of your life, how you benefit (whether knowingly or unknowingly) from your whiteness, what that means for people who do not receive that same benefit, and how you can dismantle it" Layla Saad.

White privilege is one of the strongest pillars that upholds racism. In her article “White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack” Peggy McIntosh describes white privilege as: “An invisible package of unearned assets that I can count on cashing in each day, but about which I was “meant” to remain oblivious. White privilege is like an invisible weightless knapsack of special provisions, maps, passports, codebooks, visas, clothes, tools, and blank checks.” If you are white there are privileges that you enjoy each and every day because of the color or your skin. These privileges do not mean that your life hasn’t been challenging or that you are not a hard worker, what it means is that the challenges you’ve faced have not been caused by the color of your skin. Confronting privilege is an uncomfortable process, but when you choose to face that discomfort head on you will find liberation, not only for you but for the People of Color who have been disenfranchised by the system that has granted you privilege. In this episode I get down to the brass tacks of white privilege and answer all of your burning questions: What is white privilege? What are some examples of what white privilege looks like in everyday life? How can you use it to make change? What do you do if someone you know or love denies that they have privilege? I encourage you to take a deep breath, listen with an open mind, and lean into the discomfort.

Dealing with the moral flexibility of our country's foundation requires us to address consequences it has on our lives through perceptions, policy and people. In this episode, we discuss one of the consequences and when it’s happening in the form of white privilege. We select our top five examples of white privilege from created by Peggy McIntosh in 1988.

Suzie & Lori explore their love of reading and even having a purpose for reading books for pleasure. Lori shares insight on how books have impacted her and her students. “The reading that I’ve been doing has allowed me to go places and experience things that I would never experience.” About Lori: Lori is a public school educator.

This episode was recorded in early September of 2017. It was shortly after the rally and protests in Charlottesville happened. I lived in Virginia Beach from the age of 11 to 21, so these events woke me up in a big way. I have no excuse for my ignorance up until then. White supremacy and racism are not new, my whiteness simply afforded me the privilege of benefiting from it. Therefore, it allowed me to not have to address it.The culture of whiteness normalizes the dehumanization of Black and Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) and keeps us from dropping into the depths of our humanity. The work of dismantling our own internal oppressor is painful and it is required. As a white woman (WW) who is in the spiritual realm of the coaching industry, I recognized that all the internal work I have dedicated myself to has more than prepared me to wake up to my whiteness. So to not do it would be a blatant act of upholding white supremacy. That is something I am simply unwilling to do. I am strong enough to do this work and so are you. This is the real work. This is the true call. Humanity is literally dependant on us dismantling systems of oppression.Please check out all the links below for more ways to educate yourself and start/continue this work.SHOW NOTES:Jane ElliottAudre LordeDesiree Adaway - Diversity is an AssetAndréa Renae - Coaching as Activism courseCatrice Jackson - She Talks We Talk(this is the course I was enrolled in at the time of this recording)White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible KnapsackWaking Up to Your White Privilege, Now What?

This week we have seen families stripped from each other at our border. This is a human crisis, but this crisis did not just start this week. If we zoom out we will see a lot of anger, and a lot of hatred, and a lot of dehumanization for those who are considered "other." In this episode we explore how we got to where we are, we discuss the dangers of dehumanization, privilege and intersectionality, compassion (for ourselves and others), empathy, and the different ways in which we can show up as activists. I end the episode exploring how we can talk to our children about privilege and activism. In this episode I mention several resourses including the work of Brené Brown and her book Braving the Wilderness: The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone. I also share the work of Dr. Kristin Neff on self-compassion. In terms of privilege I mention Peggy McIntosh's article White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack and Beverly Tatum's book Why are all the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria: And Other Conversations About Race. Michael Ventura's Applied Empathy work is also discussed, and raceconscious.org is shared as a resource for talking to our kids about race and privilege.

Four prominent African American leaders, two men and two women from 3 different generations, share their stories of growing up black in America. What attitudes, mindsets, and efforts were required to be effective and successful in this country as a person of color? Though I, a white male, have invested in relationships with people of color, this conversation opened new windows of understanding into the experience of my black brothers and sisters… Code switching Navigating two worlds “The talk” about police Working 10 times harder to get half as far We closed with a dialogue on how to have effective conversations on race. Here are some tools and resources mentioned on the podcast to equip you: https://courageousconversation.com/about/ Glenn Singleton’s four agreements for courageous conversations about race: Stay engaged: Staying engaged means “remaining morally, emotionally, intellectually, and socially involved in the dialogue” (p.59) Experience discomfort: This norm acknowledges that discomfort is inevitable, especially, in dialogue about race, and that participants make a commitment to bring issues into the open. It is not talking about these issues that create divisiveness. The divisiveness already exists in the society and in our schools. It is through dialogue, even when uncomfortable, the healing and change begin. Speak your truth: This means being open about thoughts and feelings and not just saying what you think others want to hear. Expect and accept nonclosure: This agreement asks participants to “hang out in uncertainty” and not rush to quick solutions, especially in relation to racial understanding, which requires ongoing dialogue (pp.58-65). Adapted from Glenn E. Singleton & Curtis Linton, Courageous about Race: A Field Guide for Achieving Equity in Schools. 2006. pp.58-65. Thousand Oaks, CA: Corwin.

Infinite Gestation welcomes special guest Matt Bird for a discussion on Southern Gothic Literature, and more specifically, three short stories by Flannery O'Connor. "Good Country People", "Everything that Rises Must Converge" and "A Good Man is Hard to Find" all exhibit the craft of a master short story writer at work, while further confirming that the author left us far too soon. These stories take a dark look at the post-bellum American South, with all its complexities. Questions emerge regarding the strange nature of evil, institutional racism, and religion's place within one's world view. The presence of O'Connor's influence can be felt in many places, though it can be seen most recently throughout the work of the Coen Brothers (many of their story-telling sensibilities stand firmly in her shadow). With two novels and two collections of short stories, the body of Flannery O'Connor's work can be consumed in a relatively short time. We highly recommend that you do so, and sooner rather than later.

Is it moral to be grateful for privilege? This week the hosts try to answer what seems to be a paradox: gratitude and privilege. Covering topics from thankfulness, entitlement, wealth and leisure, wonder and a theology of being, Jeff, Mona and Allen try to get to the bottom of this unsettling question. The episode ends with a game called Good News, Bad News where they may or may not tease out a hypothetical scenario where Mona goes on a date with Donald Trump.
