Show Notes

What is Juneteenth for? Can only Black people celebrate it? In this interview with Rasool Berry, he explains the history of Juneteenth and addresses some common misconceptions people in majority culture often hold about Black Culture.

We invite you to listen with the spirit of invitation and understanding, especially if you find yourself wanting to react with defenses or justifications.

If you are a white person committed to becoming an ally, this conversation will help you better understand how to support and celebrate collectively without accidentally becoming performative in your actions.
