But Not All At Once
What is "The Work" and How Do We Do It?
Show Notes

Educator and author Charnise Mangle joins us today to talk about "the work" many of us have been doing in recent months - and what plenty of others have been doing for far longer.
In the wake of a summer of headlines, heartache, protests, public outcry and private self-examination, there's plenty to discuss on the topic of becoming anti-racist and supporting those pursuing racial equity.
Charnise's background and passions intersect beautifully to walk us through a conversation on equality, self-education, history and hope. She says there's no room for shame and that the most profound apology is changed behavior.
We unpack how white people can carry our share of the burden by unlearning harmful messages, supporting cultural change and giving our friends of color space to process things as they need to.
Tune in for an honest, encouraging, hope-filled conversation about how we can all change our corner of the world, whether we consider ourselves influencers or not.
You can find Charnise at @cmangle on Instagram or charnisemangle.com, where you can purchase her resource for self-education, "Understanding Race & Racism in America."
Charnise references a sermon by Will Plonk, of Charleston's Grace City Church, that served as a springboard into action for her after George Floyd's murder. You can see that series, based in the book of Micah, at tinyurl.com/WillPlonkSermon.
