Eggshells

Coined by educator Robin DiAngelo, the term “white fragility” refers to the emotional, defensive reaction some white people have to discussions of race.

We talk to: Robin DiAngelo, CKNW program director Larry Gifford, and former CKNW host Ian Power and producer Zameer Karim

Paint the walls red

Really glad to have a podcast talking about race and oppression while minimizing/managing guilt-- because that never helps move the conversation forward. Looking forward to more episodes!
Sounds intriguing
