In this episode I am joined by an almost licensed counselor and member of the Black community, Gabbi Davis. We discuss:
  • Current events in Bachelor Nation that pertain to racism
    • Hannah Brown's efforts to become more anti-racist
    • The news that Matt James is the new Bachelor
  • How racism impacts mental health
  • The importance of confronting racist remarks, especially in groups
  • Why white privilege is not inherently a bad thing What is “red lining” and how it’s hurt Black and white people
  • A few examples of what it’s like to be Black in a mostly white state
  • Gabbi's thoughts on good vs. bad cops, as a daughter of a cop
  • How to be thoughtful about donations and why you shouldn’t worry about a tax write off!
  • Gabbi mentions Ericka Hart @ihartericka on Instagram- they are an activist and great resource
  • Performative allyship vs. breaking the silence
