Myndtalk With Dr. Pamela Brewer

Being White Join Dr. Brewer as she talks with Debby Irving, who describes her book like this: "By sharing my sometimes cringe-worthy struggle to understand racism and racial tensions, I offer a fresh perspective on bias, stereotypes, manners, and tolerance. As I unpack my own long-held beliefs about colorblindness, being a good person, and wanting to help people of color, I reveal how each of these well-intentioned mindsets actually perpetuated my ill-conceived ideas about race. Exercises at the end of each chapter prompt readers to explore their own racialized ideas." This might be the conversation you share with all your friends - who perceive you or themselves as different.
