Episode 3: Confronting Racism with Emotional Intelligence

from A White Guy Confronting Racism · host Jared Karol

On season one, I'm reading excerpts from my upcoming book, “A White Guy Confronting Racism: An Invitation to Reflect and Act,” coming out on November 15, 2021. Today, in Episode 3, I’m reading two excerpts from Section Three of the book: “Confronting Racism with Emotional Intelligence.” What is emotional intelligence and what does it have to do with confronting racism? Emotional intelligence, or EQ, means we are aware of, can control, and are able to express our emotions. It also means we can interact with others with empathy and non judgment. EQ requires vulnerability, curiosity, compassion, skillful communication, and so much more. Confronting racism with emotional intelligence means that we pay attention to how we’re showing up so we can show up optimally for others. It requires that we get comfortable being uncomfortable. Thank you for listening. You can pre-order the book here.
