Have you ever grappled with the challenging task of engaging in anti-racist dialogues with compassion? We've got some helpful insights for you! Join SJ Childs in an enlightening conversation with our esteemed guests, nonviolent communication trainers and authors, Sarah Peyton and Roxy Manning. We delve into the necessity of starting with self-compassion, understanding our own values, and the implications of binary thinking in these essential discussions.

As we journey onwards, we explore the concept of creating beloved communities and fostering inclusive workplaces. We discuss the value of conflict and change in fostering authentic relationships and transforming harmful beliefs. As Sarah and Roxy eloquently put it, each of us has a role to play, whether it's participating in school board meetings, advocating for race curricula in schools, or leveraging our unique skills to contribute to a more equitable world. 

In our final act, we highlight the interplay of self-compassion and anti-racism. We emphasize the power of small actions and the ripple effect they can have in sparking meaningful change. As we wind down, we engage our guests in a delightful afternoon chat about their social media presence and the value of staying connected. Thank you for joining us on this thought-provoking journey, and we look forward to continuing these critical conversations with you.
