Professor Rhonda Magee on The Glo Podcast: Racism Inside Us
Episode description
Derik Mills and Professor Rhonda Magee discuss systems of white supremacy and white privilege, and how being “colorblind” denies how race plays an active role in our everyday existence. They explore Professor Magee’s “color-insight” approach and the work of other groundbreaking thought leaders in social justice both past and present, including those of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., James Baldwin, and Professor Eddie Glaude. This episode weaves together activism, how to be an anti-racist, and mindfulness practices.
