13. The Great Unlearn - Racism & Privilege - Ravideep Kaur - PART ONE
Episode 13. The Great Unlearn - Racism & Privilege - Ravideep Kaur - PART ONE
In this episode we catch up with Ravideep Kaur, a presence/mindfulness coach and Anti-racism consultant & Educator. We cover how the tragic death of George Floyd which led to the recent BlackLivesMatter movement, impacts us all. What is Anti-Racism? What is Privilege? Can South Asian already have Privilege even if they are part of the BAME community? We talk about what is success? How does Sikhism fit into this?
This is no doubt a difficult conversation, I learnt so much more about myself through the conversation, wishing you the listeners do too.
As the conversation was quite long we have split this into two parts so PART TWO will be released shortly after this episode.
We talk about many resources to learn more about Anti-Racism, Privilege and Decolonization, which are as follows;
White privilege: unpacking the invisible knapsack, which I reference quite a lot in my work. Link to essay is below: https://www.racialequitytools.org/resourcefiles/mcintosh.pdf
