Ep. 5 - Unconscious Racism
What is unconscious racism? White people are often unaware of the racist beliefs that inform their interactions with non-white people. In this episode, host Sarah Dittmore and guest April Harter discuss how these unconscious racist beliefs come to be, how they inform white behavior, and what anti-racism work needs to be done to help white people recognize and heal their unconscious racism. Don't worry - they talk about yoga in there too! How does unconscious racism influence the yoga community? And how can yoga be a tool in anti-racism work? Discover all this and more in this week's episode. April Harter, LCSW is an anti-racism therapist that helps white people break the rules of anti-racism in order to be authentic in their interracial relationships.
