On this episode, Educate 8:46 tackles a deceptively simple, yet absolutely critical question. What is white supremacy?
It’s more than a term used to describe the behavior of white supremacist organizations. White supremacy can also be traced throughout the history of many systems, institutions, laws, and practices that have normalized the protection and empowerment of white elites above all others.
