About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

An incisive - and deeply practical - essay from the acclaimed author of Don't Touch My Hair

Stop the denial.

Abandon guilt.

Interrogate capitalism.

When it comes to racial justice, how do we transform demonstrations of support into real and meaningful change? With intellectual rigour and razor-sharp wit, Emma Dabiri cuts through the haze of online discourse to offer clear advice.

Most relevant
Contrasting a lot of popular discourse around race today, this book unpacks and challenges our conceptualisations of whiteness, capitalism, advocacy and more.

It's incredibly composed and situated, and I cannot recommend it enough.

This was pretty good, I agreed with most of Emma's points. I'll need to listen a few more times to let everything sink in properly.

A few key ponts that Emma really hit the nail on the heard were the pettiness with which lefties engage in online. So if you say something off brand or don't agree with ALL your sphere's tenets, you're SOL. And this makes coalition building impossible.

Or the useless concept white people have a special ritual to transfer their privilege (I'm white), or white peoplebeing motivated by something as unproductiveas guilt. I'll need to look into theory more but I wasn't as aware just how manufactured race is until I listened to this.

I might come back and update this at a later point, but if you're reading this, this is a valuable piece of media to engage with.

Really good and clear rhetoric
