Tori Williams Douglass — White People Can Become Allies In The Fight For Equity But They Should Do Some Homework First
OR YOU CAN LISTEN ON: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, or Google Podcasts
THIS EPISODE IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY RED KAP!
My guest today is Tori Williams Douglass. She is from Portland, Oregon. Tori is an anti-racist educator, the founder of White Homework, a writer, a content creator, and so much more. In our chat, we talk about growing up in a progressive but not so progressive city, living on stolen land, systemic racism, the global pandemic, police brutality, spirituality (or the lack thereof), what she would right now if she were president, and so much more. Fair warning — this conversation is raw and unfiltered. I mean, y’all already know that’s how I roll but this one is extra spicy. You can't say I didn’t warn you.
Follow Tori online, on Twitter, and on Instagram. And sign up for White Homework!
