Ep. 10: White Privilege

Get Real or Die Trying with Amadon DellErba

Amadon DellErba discusses white privilege and systemic racism in America. He recalls his experiences protesting injustice, police brutality, & the militarization of police across the country. He speaks from the heart “at the risk of being misunderstood and offending on this very touchy subject,” exploring the limitations of white people’s perspectives, recognizing their societal place of privilege, and encouraging them to seek compassion and understanding in order to combat the disease of racism, ultimately embracing the brotherhood and sisterhood of humankind under one Creator.

Black Lives Matter. White people cannot pretend to know what it is to live with present-day racism and transgenerational trauma. "The privilege that we have as white people is subconscious, and that's why it's so hard to teach to people. Because you just grow up and you have it. You don't realize you have it. And you have to start being educated.” ~ Amadon DellErba
