    #30 Race & Privilege

    After processing the rising violent attacks on the Asian community in the US and the UK, we wanted to have a discussion around how race, and our gender, have impacted us.⁣ ⁣ Some of the questions* we discussed were:⁣ 💭What did you grow up believing “beautiful” looked like? Where did that come from?⁣ 💭How do you define “privilege”? Articulate the privileges you have.⁣ 💭What do you hope future generations understand about race?⁣ ⁣ Hopefully these questions might prompt some reflection and conversations for you too so we can make change as a community.⁣ If you'd like to talk about your thoughts after listening, feel free to DM or email us!⁣ ⁣ *𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 @werenotreallystrangers⁣ ~~⁣⁣⁣⁣ 𝗘𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝗽𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗱𝗲?
