70: Identifying Ourselves on the Wheel of Privilege and Power

Although this episode would be beneficial to parents, teachers, school clinicians, educational consultants, etc... it's really one of those topics that's relevant for anyone who is a human living on planet Earth. Our heart-work (hard work!) in better understanding how to promote equity, inclusion and anti-racism in the systems we work in is never done. In this episode I list 4 resources that are great starting points in this journey, and I dive deeper into explaining one of them (i.e., The Wheel of Privilege and Power). This resource is an excellent way to understand intersectionality and how everyone's life experiences are going to provide differing amounts of earned and unearned power and privilege.
Resources discussed in this episode:
1. The book "The Skin We're In," by Desmond Cole
2. The book "White Fragility," by Robin DiAngelo
3. The book "Me and White Supremacy," by Laayla F. Saad
4. The Wheel of Privilege and Power
