344: My Race Background


Listen Later

Race is a major topic since police killed George Floyd in custody.

I consider one of the major problems that people don't feel heard or understood. I see virtually no one in authority showing that they are listening.

A friend who is white shared some of how she is struggling. I shared my background regarding race. She said I should share that background. I shared it with others. They agreed.

This episode shares my experiences regarding race---a loose collection of memories. One person said hearing my details helped him think about his, which was my goal: to help people express themselves.

I start from my earliest memories through grade school, high school, graduate school, starting companies, and recent reflections.
