  • #017: The Cure for Racism? with Eric Johnson

    I haven't done enough. I haven't been a good ally.

    Like most of you, the images you're seeing right now are frustrating, saddening, infuriating, confusing, heartbreaking, and simply wrong in ways we'd hoped we wouldn't see again in this country. Yet here we are again. While "thoughts and prayers" are needed, I've decided I need to do more. Part of me realizing that I need to do more has led to me educating myself. Through that education, I have come to understand how little I know.

    This podcast is for anyone who feels helpless, powerless or just doesn't know what to say or do...I understand. My hope is we will learn to take SOME action, ANY action to try something new. We need to help each other. We need to listen. We need to understand. We need to act. My guest, Eric Johnson of Insighted, shares his expertise being a Diversity and Inclusion Expert and also gives his perspective as an African American man in America.

    This episode is for you if you want to learn:

    • [11:10] Why everyone's voices needed to be heard right now
    • [14:15] The 2 main issues Eric sees with white people going dark on social media
    • [18:06] Eric's views on what you can do and say as a white person to show unity
    • [20:45] What this movement is really about (and no, it's not what you think)
    • [25:08] How during a recent event he still followed the advice his parents gave him as a 4 year old
    • [31:51] The two types of fear we all experience
    • [33:10] One big problem that can be created when you stay stuck in the same narrative
    • [38:52] Where change needs to actually take place in order to have a different, more positive outcome
    • [40:10] What the acronym RAIN stands for (and how you can apply it to help overcome racism)
    • [47:46] The questions you can ask yourself while you are investigating what is happening right now
    • [50:06] What you need to be questioning even if you think you know the answers
    • [56: 26] Who is responsible for education around racism
    • [1:07:20] Why just checking a box isn't actually doing anything
