"We won't make real progress on racial justice until those who are unaffected are as moved to action as those who are," says guest Grant Elliott, co-founder of Be The Change, a coalition to improve the culture around race in Barrington schools. So how does this happen? Grant talks with hosts Zina Jacque & Jessica Green after welcoming guest Courtney E. Martin, author of The Examined Family and The New Better Off, about what they are learning as they pursue equity & inclusion for future generations. Grant shares the 3 "C's" he is discovering in this work: consistency, complacency & comfort. To join future Courageous Conversations, or watch video from past sessions, visit CourageousCommunity.us.
