Deeper Than Color: Uncancelling Cross Racial Conversations

Deeper Than Color: Uncancelling Cross Racial Conversations

Since the atrocity of George Floyd's murder in 2020, Deeper Than Color hosts Chris Gee, Ayat Shukairy, and Karen Amundson have created a space for healthy conversation around race among people from different races. These cross-racial dialogues range on topics from inter-racial relationships, to pop culture, family history, workplace dynamics, and everything in between. Each week our hosts meet with guests to demonstrate that conversations about race in a mixed-race environment are possible, necessary and normalized.

Yet as the latest US census and many other data points show, reaching an increasingly diverse marketplace in the US is crucial to business success now and in the future.
