Explore the Impacts of Internalized Racism
Not just what it is - learn what to do with it.
I've been thinking about internalized racism racism for many years. And about liberation.
What I know is that the world that is possible will not be accessible to any one without a deep exploration and excavation of our internalized racism.
I know that it is possible to live from a liberatory perspective and experience in a system framed by racism because I do it every day. I want you to, also.
