This week—after we take a little side-trip to talk about “quiet quitting”—we dive into the culture behind the culture. Using the updated paper produced by Tema Okun (and supported and sourced from many others), Characteristics of White Supremacy Culture as a frame, we explore some of the ways what we think of as “just the way things are” may actually be a result of us living within the context of oppressive systems. As practitioners, how might we use this information?
