#63 Listen, feel, be an ally

The last few weeks have been incredibly intense, yet transformative. As truth rises to the surface, we are all being called to listen, acknowledge that truth, process our feelings without pouring them all over others, and become an ally to the black community and all people of color. In this episode, I talk about how I'm examining my white privilege, educating myself about the systemic racism and implicit bias in the US and the world, and how I process all of these emotions that are coming up within me and in the collective. This juncture we are in together is one we will look back on as a major shift in our lives. Let's fully experience it. 

Resources I'm exploring on racism, white privilege, and implicit bias:

• 1619: An audio series on how slavery has transformed America by the New York Times.  
• #GoodAncestor podcast: Robin DiAngelo on White Fragility
• Black Hollywood: 'They've Gotta Have Us' on netflix
• Ezra Klein Show: Why Ta-Nehisi Coates is hopeful
• Code Switch
• Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson explains in one minute why ocean conservation is a social justice issue.
• Ayana Elizabeth Johnson: I’m a black climate expert. Racism derails our efforts to save the planet.
• Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson (movie is free on Amazon during June)
• 13th (documentary on Netflix)
• Black Futures Lab works with Black people to transform our communities, building Black political power and changing the way that power operates—locally, statewide, and nationally.
