A Cure For Racism

By Yvette Dubel

In such a divided time, having committed allies is more important than ever. This isn't about what you have to lose but about how to get what you really want in a way that ushers in our better world.  If we want to free our society that has been plagued for too long by racism, then we need you to do the brave brass tacks level of work to make that possible. Because the sad truth is, it runs deep. It may seem hard to know exactly what to do to shift the cultural norms and policies that define and sustain systemic racism. As an added MUST HAVE BONUS for the most committed allies, this edition includes the updated and revised "Be The Change Playbook" with valuable step-by-step guidance to begin putting what you learn to work immediately!

This book was created in response to actual questions I heard, a legacy of wisdom, and my personal insights over many decades of personal professional experience. This essential set of knowledge and approaches will make addressing systemic racism less stressful and provide relief by bringing together creativity and personal momentum to change the way you understand your success. If you are ready, then this is for you.

The Story

Here we are at this moment that will inevitably become our history. Although I always think it’s just me, you have probably felt it too at some point. How did I end up here? It is not just about what you have been doing; it’s how you do it that matters. And when it comes to a cure for racism that is definitely true.

Here you are invited to help perfect this recipe starter in a cure for racism. In baking sourdough bread, starter, called levain filled with natural yeasts and bacteria, is essential. However this is a recipe for systemic transformation via removal of its critical ingredient and transforming its only means of delivery. 

Drawing on the wisdom of my cultural legacy I am developing the SoulFood model or framework.  This work is the basis of Cultural Fusion Art as Philosophy [CFAaP], an art series and foundation of a Renaissance-like social innovation movement. Before we get into that let's put this into relevant context and rewind a bit…

I could not believe this person I will call Person A had the nerve to cry when I demanded a more logical explanation than racism because it very much felt like it to me. I felt my whole internal system disrupted by a mix of hurt, disappointment, and rage. I took a risk, and it felt like a bad one.

But before that happened, I trusted this person and went all-in on what we agreed to do. And ask anyone who knows me well, that degree of trust in someone was a rare occurrence. But being on stage felt so much more comfortable with a friend at my side.

After the second or third time of presenting together, my then friend, Person A, and I walked off the stage and headed to the back of the room for an immediate debrief and celebration that we had done it. We were making the vision real, and things were lining up.

The video/audio person, Person B, approached beaming. They (Person B) loved what we were saying, thought it was so valuable, and wanted to support us. Person B loved our tagline and logo, our message, and felt inspired. B offered to give us a trailer and
