Joining us this week on the Radicals & Revolutionaries Lab is Saira Rao, co-founder of Race2Dinner and Haven Media. Our host, Jillian Foster, speaks with Saira about her unyielding work attempting to educate white women. She created Haven Media, a community-based in abolition and liberation for BIPOC women, and Race2Dinner, a dinner event where white women talk about their complicity in upholding white supremacy and keeping Black and brown women down. This episode digs into that and more as Saira shares her thoughts on white perfectionism, intersections of substance and process, setting healthy boundaries in the face of capitalism, and critical race theory in our schools. This conversation and Saira’s work remind white women that anti-racism work can’t possibly begin until you start dismantling internal misogyny and whiteness. Anti-racism work can’t start until you love yourself.
