Episode title: Moving From Not Racist to Anti-Racist
WHAT WILL THE AUDIENCE LEARN?
The audience will discover why not being a racist is not enough to dismantle racism.
EPISODE SUMMARY:
Have you ever heard or made the statement "I'm not a racist?" Often this statement is made when one feels that they have to prove that they "accept everyone" or that they "don't see color." It's not enough to make such a statement, and some would argue that such a statement actually perpetuates racism. For, it stops one from looking inward and closely examining their own thoughts and deeply held beliefs. It also stops one from actively engaging in the process of dismantling racism.
Join Rev. Dr. TLC as she sits down with her guest. Lesley Michaels to discuss the importance of moving from "I'm not a racist." to becoming an antiracist. Despite Lesley's long history of disrupting the status quo, she realized that her personal beliefs alone are not enough to disrupt racism. There is more that she can do to actively disrupt racism. Listen in as she discusses her process of becoming an anti-racist.
