    Rebecca Greenidge works to help white people reconnect to their curiosity about race. Her socialization into white dominant society attempted to disconnect her from her cultural and linguistic ancestry, her core self, her white community, and the whole of humanity. For the past 13 years, she has been on a journey to understand how white dominance works to name her and build the skills needed to live differently. She believes that race has profound impact on white people and she is committed to creating pathways for her white community to reclaim humanity, increase truth-telling, build capacity to respond to injustice, and commit to divesting from white dominant culture in solidarity with the liberation movements of Indigenous, Black, and brown people.
