The Grey of Black and White

Through a work of the Spirit I have survived this week and an intensive class on dismantling racism this weekend (Fri.-Sun.). Still breathing and amazingly cognitively functioning fairly well, but very wiped out. So excited to go to bed!!

One of the most powerful parts of the class this weekend was watching the documentary The Color of Fear (1994)by Lee Mun Wah. Highly recommend you see it and then process it with people you know well and trust. It's intense, vulgar, brutally honest and touches the depth of humanity and racism. Really helped me understand what white privilege is and how it impacts people of other colors, races and ethnicities.
