My guest this week is the esteemed Tim Wise. Tim is among the most prominent anti-racist educators and authors in the United States. He has spoken to audiences in all 50 states and internationally about systemic racism, inequality, and methods for dismantling racism in institutions from workplaces to schools to law enforcement.
He is the author of nine books including his most recent essay collection, Dispatches from the Race War, and his highly acclaimed memoir, White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son.
He tweets (or Xes, pardon how that sounds) here and posts regular commentary on Instagram here.
During our chat, we talk about being a Jewish person raising in the South, how he got into anti-racist work, the horrific war happening in Palestine and Israel currently, Zionism, where we go from here, and so much more.
