This Shit Works

7 Tools to Navigate Conversations About Race and Identity with Michael Fosberg


Listen Later

My guest today spent the first 30 years of his life thinking he was white. It wasn’t until he spoke to his biological father for the first time that he discovered that he is half black. 

Since then Michael has utilized his award winning autobiographical story, told in the form of a one-man play, as an entry point for meaningful dialogues on race and identity, and in his most recent book Nobody Wants to Talk About It: he has assembled a set of seven important tools and takeaways useful in navigating uncomfortable conversations about race and identity - something this country desperately needs. 

Listen in as I talk with Michael about these 7 tools and so many other ideas around race and identity.
