In this final episode of Season One, Emma and Grace revisit a conversation Grace had with her son in the spring of 2020. They re-enact the discussion of emotions that come from imagining a loved one being killed as a result of racial violence. Then Emma and Grace role play this conversation to show how it might change if held between a Black child and an unrelated, loving, white adult in their life. In the reflections, they discuss the emotional and physical toll of racial violence. Grace relays an experience of a reluctant conversation about race led by a non-black person of color in a problematic setting and Emma shares about her process of navigating this complicated talk as a white person.
Freedom Means... will be back a few weeks into 2022 with Season Two. We will be joined by some special guest experts to help us tackle new conversations. Happy New Year!
