182: What Can I Do to Be More Anti-racist? The Not-a-Checklist Checklist

Over the last 3.5 years, we’ve had this weekly podcast (now on episode 182!), we’ve written a book (Dear White Women: Let’s Get (Un)comfortable Talking About Racism), and we’ve spoken with many different people at many different organizations. Meaning, we’ve heard and learned a lot of things.

With a few exceptions, our sense is that people *want* to be seen as good people; they say they *want* to be more anti-racist. But despite their best intentions, some things get in the way of you actually *doing* something to make positive change: You don’t feel like you know enough, you don’t want to make a mistake, and so you don’t feel like you know what to actually do.

So this episode is meant as a kick in the pants at the end of our summer of action, to give you a LOT of ideas. Listen through and if something sparks your interest or speaks to you, write it down; remember it; come back to it and DO it.
