"Understanding our Shared Liberation" with David Dean

David Dean is an anti-racism educator. He specializes in helping white people understand how their liberation is bound up with undoing racism. We explore the history of whiteness and race in the U.S. and across human history. The stories of racism, classism and patriarchy are connected and they impact all of us. An exploration of this deep history helps us understand how all of our ancestors were ripped away from their origins and forced to participate in a system that wants us to be divided, so that we can’t organize to fight the real sources of oppression. We talk about how these wounds play out today. I’m personally transformed from this conversation. It’s provocative and powerful, and is not your typical conversation about race.
