Facing Racism Head-On: Honest Conversations with Lisa Lackey

To avoid pain is to avoid growth and challenge and to avoid looking is to lose an opportunity for empathy and to avoid looking is also to avoid being authentic in my emotional responses to racism.
Racism isn't an easy topic to tackle, but Lisa Lackey dives right into it with her guests in this eye-opening episode of 'Insideout Conversations'. Lisa, a seasoned therapist and consultant, doesn't shy away from the tough questions. She believes that avoiding pain is also avoiding growth, and this episode is all about leaning into discomfort to spark real change. You'll hear from Joyce Marter, who shares her own teachable moment about white privilege and fragility.
Joyce's story is a raw and honest look at the mistakes made and lessons learned while trying to facilitate a conversation on racism. Her candid reflections offer a powerful reminder that good intentions aren't always enough, and self-examination is crucial. Laura Tanner also joins the discussion, emphasizing the importance of channeling outrage into racial justice. She speaks passionately about the energy and urgency of being part of a movement that seeks to dismantle systemic racism.
Laura's insights are both inspiring and challenging, urging listeners to consider their motivations and actions in the fight against racism. This episode is more than just a conversation; it's a call to action. It's about acknowledging the messiness of healing and the necessity of uncomfortable dialogues. Lisa and her guests bring personal anecdotes and heartfelt insights to the table, making this episode a compelling listen for anyone committed to understanding and addressing racism.
