S1, Ep #9 : How to Be a Better Ally with Dani Coke
If we can learn anything from the injustice and the movements that are taking place in our nation right now, it’s that we can no longer be silent.
The first step to understanding what is taking place is to listen to our black brothers and sisters and hear their cry for equality.
It was a privilege and an honor to speak with Dani Coke on this issue of racism and I truly hope you are able to listen with open ears, hearts and minds to take that first step.
What you will learn from Dani:
What is an ally and how to be the right kind of ally.
Performative posts vs. Productive posts
Self centering and the heart behind the action
You don’t have to have it perfect to speak out.
What is white privilege and why it’s not what many people think.
Conviction vs. Guilt on the matter
To make change in the world, it has to start in our heart and be discussed in the home.
Protesting and the misconceptions
Resources to learn and educate yourself on all the topics discussed.
