In Episode 2 of a special series of episodes
regarding racial injustice, we are joined by Rev. Dr. Matt Russell,
Dr. Rachel Schneider, both from Project Curate and Rev. Ronald
Southall and Rev. Clifton Conrad. In this episode, we discuss white
privilege and what it means to be white in the world. We also
discuss some ways, knowingly or unknowingly, some white people
complicate racial matters.
This episode is a preview to a series
of webinars where Project Curate will introduce us to an important
beginning point to the antiracist conversation: what whiteness
means in our society, how whiteness has been constructed and why,
and how whiteness continues to perpetuate racist policy that leads
to continued racial disparities and prejudices.
These webinars are open to the public and you can
register by heading to our website: www.la-umc.org/endracism
