Watch this episode HERE.
What does white supremacy actually look like in everyday life — and what role do white women play in upholding it?
In this powerful, uncomfortable, and necessary conversation, host Carrie Murray sits down with Dr. Akilah Cadet — founder and CEO of Change Cadet, Forbes Next 1000 entrepreneur, public health practitioner, and author of White Supremacy Is All Around: Notes from a Black Disabled Woman in a White World — to talk about the systems, structures, and behaviors that keep white supremacy alive and well, including what white women can do to stop enabling it.
They cover:
The Supreme Court's rollback of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and what it means for all of us
Why DEI, affirmative action, and now voting rights are being systematically dismantled
The difference between an ally and an accomplice — and why allyship isn't enough
Why white women keep choosing proximity to whiteness over solidarity with other women
How to think upstream and prevent harm before it reaches your doorstep
What it means to be comfortable being uncomfortable
The power of critical thinking in a world flooded with AI-generated and algorithm-fed information
This episode is not here to make you comfortable. It's here to call you in.
