It's been a big few weeks. The death of George Floyd in Minneapolis has led a major reckoning around the work regarding the role of black people in modern society and the massive structural racist inequalities that are baked into our civilization. We talked about what's been happening and how our perspective and our understanding of our own obligations as privileged white people are to participate and support the coming reckoning on race in this country.
