Found Family with MaryB. Safrit

Surviving White Spaces as a BIPOC (feat. Latasha Morrison)


Listen Later

Today's episode is the story of an author and advocate working to uproot systemic racism so we can create commmunities that are better for everyone. 

Latasha Morrison (she/her) is a distinguished author and nonprofit founder widely known for her transformative work in fostering racial reconciliation and unity. As a New York Times best-selling author, she has captured the hearts and minds of readers worldwide with her powerful words and insightful perspectives. She founded the nonprofit Be the Bridge in 2016 to encourage racial reconciliation among all ethnicities, to promote racial unity in America and to equip others to do the same. In the book, she equips and calls readers to break the systems that have for so long marginalized the BIPOC communities. Through her writing and advocacy, Latasha Morrison is a beacon of hope, igniting conversations, challenging social norms and empowering others to take action toward a more inclusive and equitable world.

In today's episode, you'll hear Latasha and I discuss

  • Sustainability and rest when navigating white spaces
  • Why we need to tell the truth about our history
  • Prioritizing someone else’s sorrow over our own defensiveness
  • And more! 

Brown Faces, White Spaces is available TODAY wherever you buy books. You can follow Latasha all the places @ latashamorrison and @ bethebridge. Check out more of her work at latashamorrison.com
