Counting Black and White Beans Episode 16. Accounting as past harm
On the whole we tend to view accounting as a dull and boring excise in counting beans. But this is not true and hasn't been true ever. In this episode a brief review is given of how this 'boring technology' was in fact integral to harm inflicted up Black and Brown bodies during slavery and how it...

Counting Black and White Beans Episode 15. CRT Counterstories
We all tell tales and they can be powerful if the right one is told in the right way. All too often a dominant majority white tale is told about the inferiority of Black professionals and other People of Color in the workplace and beyond.

Counting Black and White Beans Episode 13. White Fragility
In this episode we explore the much-maligned concept of White Fragility.

Counting Black and White Beans Episode 10. White Supremacy

Counting Black and White Beans Episode 9. Racial Risk
So, in this episode we ask what does it mean to be racially unsafe at work? It means for the most part knowing that at some point or another you will experience subtle hidden racism. Racial risk in this instance is the 'threat in the air', that a microassault is around the corner, and that you,...

Counting Black and White Beans Episode 8. Whiteness
It is difficult to talk about race and it is particularly difficult in our more modern times. But why is this? In this show I put forward the case that the Whiteness of everyday life is responsible.

Counting Black and White Beans Episode 4. The Tales We Tell and Why We Tell Them
In this episode we explore racial tales. Whether we like it or not we all tell tales about the world around us and the society we live in. But which tale is 'Truth' and whose truthful tale matters more in a society that is racialized? What affect does this have in our working life and those who...

Counting Black and White Beans Episode 1 Race talk as Threat
Why don't we really talk about race or racism in polite society? We don't talk about it accounting circles for the most part because its difficult to do. In this podcast I seek to upend this. Talk is good and I hope this will be the start of a great conversation around race and what it means in...
