A Longer Table

116: What do People of Color Wish Their White Friends Knew?

Listen Later

Marie Beecham is an advocate for social justice and unity. I invited Marie to the table to hear how she would answer the questions: 

  1. What do People of Color wish their White friends knew?
  2. What can we say or do instead of responding with “I understand”?
  3. What’s the balance of being a White ally and advocate who listens and doesn’t speak on behalf of People of Color, but speaks up appropriately instead of doing nothing?

    4. Follow and support Marie's work here.
