We can't do outside work until we do internal work. The White Community isn't usually referred to as a community. White folks have really struggled to survive, and in this racial construct, not from a physical standpoint necessarily, although there are some indications that being white and experiencing loss of things like loss of humanity, loss of culture, loss of community connection has had a very negative impact.
How do conversations about race, power, and privilege shape our society? In this eye-opening episode of The Beyond Addiction Show, Dr. Josh King sits down with Dr. Lisa Martin and Cyndi Carnaghi-Collins, both seasoned anti-racism trainers and therapists, to tackle these pressing questions. Sparked by the tragic murder of George Floyd, this dialogue dives into the often-ignored blind spots surrounding whiteness and its impact on black communities.
The discussion isn't just theoretical; it gets to the emotional core of anti-racism work, highlighting the dehumanizing effects of racist actions and messages. Dr. Martin and Carnaghi-Collins also explore the struggle of white individuals within a racial construct and suggest ways they can use their power to foster meaningful change. They stress the importance of connecting emotionally with black art and literature as a step toward empathy and understanding.
For those seeking support, the episode provides valuable resources like The People's Institute for Survival and Beyond, as well as therapy and support groups tailored for parents raising children of color and women of color. This conversation is raw, engaging, and transformative, offering listeners a chance to better understand the ongoing dialogue about race and the necessary steps to heal our fractured society.
