Blackout
In light of the current protests over the epidemic of police violence in this country, we will not be bringing you a new episode this week. Instead we stand with the Black community to fight rascism today and everyday and to honor a fraction of the people who have lost their lives at the hands of the police. We have compiled some resources, books and articles to help you on your journey towards being an ally to Black people and other People of Color in our country. Books: White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism by Robin DiAngelo Me and White Supremacy: Combat Racism, Change the World, and Become a Good Ancestor by Layla F.
