How can we identify White Privilege in our daily lives? What can we do about it?
In Part 2 of our 3 part series on White Privilege, we dive deeper into the issue with frank discussion on how the US culture is structured to benefit one particular group of us, and our responsibility that comes with it.
Our guests include Jennifer Yeagley, Executive Director, Sarah Ogdie, Program Director, and Sam Obeid, Anytown® Coordinator.
