Unpacking Assumptions: "Beyond the Smile: Unmasking Nice Racism"

In this thought-provoking episode of the Morris Perspective Podcast, host Connie Morris delves into the concept of "nice racism" — a subtle, often overlooked form of racial bias cloaked in politeness. While many believe that being nice is synonymous with being non-racist, this episode challenges listeners to reconsider this assumption. Connie discusses how niceties can obscure harmful biases and perpetuate systemic racism, urging everyone to engage in uncomfortable yet necessary conversations about race. With insights from Robin DiAngelo's work, Connie highlights the importance of acknowledging the impact of our actions over intentions and invites listeners to reflect on their own biases and commitment to true allyship.
