Ep 19: DISRUPT Business as Usual! Confronting Racism and White Privilege with Dr. Victoria Farris
Listen now
Description
In this conversation we turn a lens towards white allyship, accompliceship, and beyond. In between the behavior analytic gems, you will hear a raw and unfiltered perspective of white supremacy, racism, and the system of opression that is upheld in the United States. In this show we uplift issues we don't generally discuss in behavior analysis. We’ll review vocabulary and talk about what we can do to be more effective change agents. You’ll leave this eppy with a greater understanding of allyship, learn how to disrupt the system, and hear about differing  experiences racial minorities face in the United States. Learning Objectives: 1- Participants will build a foundational vocabulary and basic familiarity with topics related to identity, inclusion, and equity. 2- Participants will recieve an overview of the DISRUPT model of effective allyship. 3- Learn actionable steps to further engage as an ally or accomplice. We will let Victoria tell you about herself: I am a native New Yorker on a mission to encourage a more inclusive World, I am a disrupter, a truth teller, and a justice seeker. I work to shine light onto truths that can be hard to recognize. For the early part of my career I found myself wondering how to be a good ally for racial justice. That’s why I’ve focused my research on understanding, from the perspectives of folks of color, what White people can do to disrupt and dismantle systemic racism. As always, we hope that you enjoy the conversation, as much as we enjoyed recording it.
