Join me and my friend Benny Vasquez, long-time educator and current Chief Equity Officer at the KIPP Foundation, as we discuss what it means to be anti-racist on a personal and organizational level. Benny offers his perspectives as a lifelong educator and passionate DEI activist. In this conversation we discuss: The role of white people in dismantling racism. Specific tips for anti-racist hiring practices. The benefit of white affinity groups and why we don't have time for white fragility. Future visions of Black liberation, Black joy and transformation for all.
