The Superpowers of Privilege with Bob Parrish

The Superpowers of Privilege with Bob Parrish
I’m thrilled to visit today with a long time friend and photography mentor, Bob Parrish. Bob has all the privileges a white man typically has, and he has taken it upon himself to learn more about what less privileged people deal with on a regular basis and what he can do to affect change in dismantling racism and prejudice.Some years ago, he became aware of his whiteness and privilege, read many books, and actually took a class on how things got to be the way they are. He now uses his “superpower” in position and voice to include as many different people as possible in everything he does. In this episode we’ll cover quite a lot including religion, inviting neighbors to dinner, interracial marriage, and much more.Mentioned in this episode:“Two Nations: Black and White, Separate, Hostile, Unequal” by Andrew Hacker: ​​https://www.amazon.com/Two-Nations-Separate-Hostile-Unequal/dp/0743238249/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1J25HHPVHC1FP&keywords=two+nations+black+and+white%2C+separate%2C+hostile%2C+unequal&qid=1693536514&sprefix=two+nations+separate%2Caps%2C2375&sr=8-1We want to hear every story!

A Legacy of Love with Daralyse Lyons

A Legacy of Love with Daralyse Lyons
Join me today to visit with Daralyse Lyons. Daralyese grew up in Connecticut in a mostly white community, but her mom understood the importance of representation as she was growing up.Daralyse Lyons, aka the Transformational Storyteller, is a Biracial journalist, actor, and activist who has made it her mission to stand for a more integrated world. After writing an award-winning children’s book (I’m Mixed!) about embracing her multiethnic heritage, she found her passion and her purpose in empowering others to embrace all aspects of themselves. She has written and spoken extensively about all dimensions of diversity, and feels tremendous gratitude for the opportunity to use her seemingly disparate background as a catalyst for cross-cultural understanding.  Her TEDx Talk “Black or White? Refusing to Choose & Embracing Biracial Identity” encourages individuals to embrace their own conceptions of themselves, rather than adhering to the mandates of a broken society. She is grateful for the opportunity to explore the experiences of other multiracial folx, and to amplify their voices.We want to hear every story!
