Seltzer Squad Discusses Black Lives Matter and Real Change

We're quiet, passive, aggressive, white people, right. But it's all the other things that society teaches us, right, that we pick up along the way, things that you don't realize are racist, exactly.
Ever wondered how you can genuinely support the Black Lives Matter movement? In this episode of 'Seltzer Squad', hosts Kate Zander and Jes Valentine tackle this critical issue head-on. They share their own reflections on how they’ve been part of the problem and discuss actionable steps to move forward. From unlearning ingrained racism to taking meaningful actions beyond social media, this episode is packed with practical advice and heartfelt honesty.
The hosts emphasize the importance of being vocal about one's beliefs and using one's platform for good. As Kate puts it, 'We've had this stage for so long, and it's just reprogramming yourself a little bit, which is something that you and I and other people that are sober are used to doing'. If you're looking to educate yourself and contribute to social justice, this episode offers valuable insights and real-life strategies.
Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that goes beyond hashtags and posts.
