๐ White Supremacy: the Water not the Shark with Sharon Hurley Hall

This week, we re-air one our 1st ever podcasts. Sam Chavez's conversation with Sharon Hurley Hall in February 2024. We get real about white supremacy and how we as individuals can push back and be anti-racist activists in this current world.
- Elevating voices and being a conduit of truth in this moment of racial and social awakening
- Finding hope at the micro and local level, while looking at the global impact
- Pushing back against algorithms and tech
- Going beyond skin color to find โour peopleโ
- Envisioning a new way forward
We discuss the audiobook release of her book, Iโm Tired of Racism, and how racism is the waters that we swim in, not just the shark. Our conversation held both hope and reality! I also recommend our chat this year with her sister, Lisa Hurley about building intentional communities.
