As a white man pushing 52 years, I have a statement to make:
I am the beneficiary of institutionalized, systemic racism in this country, and I have benefited greatly from white supremacy.
It’s time for me to own that. And if you look and sound like me, it’s probably time for you to own that too.
There are a lot of things I can do and will do with that ownership. To start, and with the permission of the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University, I’m including the first episode of Seeing White, a 14-part podcast that was the second season of Scene on Radio to the end this audio.
So bear through a few minutes of my taking ownership of my role - given though it may have been - and then you’ll get the good, eye-opening content. And I hope you decide, either before or after, to listen to all 12 episodes. Yes, it’s that important. Especially if you look and sound like me.
