One Step at a Time - A Journey to Becoming Anti-Racist

“We talk about diversity, equity and inclusion as if it’s a program or a series of dashboards with an endpoint,” Betsy Leonard remarks, “when what we’re really doing is transforming the very water we swim in and the very air we breathe. It’s never-ending work.”

Betsy Leonard is Executive Director of Kartemquin Films, an Oscar-winning collaborative non-profit that uplifts and empowers documentary makers who create stories that encourage equity, justice, and engagement in society. As a passionate leader and strategist, she sees herself as a connector of people and ideas.

In this week’s show, Betsy discusses the imperative of doing self-work and shares her personal journey to becoming anti-racist and how she's educated herself. She talks about learning to "sit in" love and liberation, and gives insight into the work Kartemquin is doing.

Tune in to listen to Betsy, and then let us know: how can you live in love and liberation in your community?
