EP 115: What to Say: The Role of Power in Addressing Racism

The Bright Morning Podcast with Elena Aguilar

In this episode of our What to Say When You Hear Something Racist limited series, Elena guides you through how to reflect on power dynamics that are present in a situation in which you hear something racist. Listen in to hear the three types of power dynamics commonly at play, how your identity markers add complexity that must be considered, and how an awareness of both can help you find a springboard to open up the conversation.
