The subject of race is a hot-button topic, one that many people shy away from for fear of offending someone. But in America today, it’s not going away.
Part of being an effective communicator means being able to relate to and talk to a range of people, regardless of race, creed, origin, sexual preference, age and more. That’s why I wanted to talk to Jeffrey Blount about the topic.
Jeffrey is an accomplished speaker on race and social justice and gives us deep insight into what it means to grow up black in America and why race is truly an American experience and issue.
This week’s episode of the Confident Communications podcast explores how African Americans think and talk about themselves, why white people have such a difficult time talking about race and how everyone should relate to one another better.
No matter what your race or background, this is an important episode to listen to and one that promises to give you the insight into how you can begin to talk about race in your own life.
