Reketta Peterson joins me from Fairbanks, Alaska to talk about how we may be promoting anti-blackness in sustainability, without even knowing it. Reketta is a BIPOC health equity consultant at RSP Consulting, an author, and a therapist. She\u2019s passionate about bringing people together and sparking conversations about anti-blackness and inclusivity.
\nThere were many strong words that came up in our conversation, and I thought it would be good to call them out here as food for thought: resistance, dismissive, inclusive, perspective, awareness, struggle, autonomy.
\nSIMPLE IDEA:
\nReketta urges us to pay attention to our language when we speak, with a special focus on how what we\u2019re saying is being received. Is the person we\u2019re talking to feeling small or unheard? Are they losing their sense of autonomy, and are we controlling what their actions should be?
