#35 - Embracing Discomfort: Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable

The topic of race and racial discrimination continues to remain a pressing issue in modern society particularly in schools for both students, teachers and leaders. As discussions surrounding racism and microaggressions become more prevalent, it is crucial for white people to not only participate in these conversations but also to be comfortable with the inevitable discomfort that comes with them.

It’s time to have some “real talk” about embracing discomfort and empowering white allies in the fight against racism in our schools and districts.  

In this episode, we will be exploring:

1. The importance of white allies being comfortable with being uncomfortable when discussing topics like microaggressions, racism, and discrimination against Black people in the workplace.
2. Tips and resources for white allies to better understand the Black experience and strengthen their allyship.
3. Practical actions white allies can take to help create a truly inclusive work environment that supports and uplifts Black colleagues.

Join me as we navigate these critical conversations, and together, learn how we can break down barriers and champion change in our schools for both our amazing educators, leaders and ultimately, our students. Let's get started!"
