Description

Should white people be taking the lead and practicing antiracism or stepping aside and following people of color? Do people of color want to speak for themselves, or does that burden them with representing their entire race?In this episode, we examine the role that white people have to play in the antiracism movement. We talk through the ethics of different contexts: white people who have careers in antiracism, whether white people should lead antiracism-focused organizations, and what role white people have in conversations about race. (Spoiler: It's an important one!)Sources:HBR, Does Diversity Training Work the Way It’s Supposed To?
