SEASON TWO - EPISODE 17: THE LEPROSY OF WHITENESS WITH DAVE CAPOZZI
Being healed from the leprosy of whiteness.
That, among other things, is what Dave Capozzi and I talk about in this episode. Dave is a former church planter and now works in preventative work for under-resourced populations outside of Boston, MA.
Dave is one of those guys who make you think, who challenges your assumptions, and pushes you to be a better human being.
In this episode, we talk about whiteness, how we've messed up these conversations and were complicit in racist systems, the importance of shutting up and listening to the stories and experiences of others, and the importance of checking our motives as we do this work.
Dave isn’t an author, doesn’t have his own website, isn’t hosting a podcast, or living as a social media influencer. He’s making a tangible difference in his community, in the lives of the people who know him, and in the culture.
Be sure to follow Dave on Twitter and Instagram. He’s someone you should know.
As you continue to do the work of dismantling systems, listening to others, checking your motives, and being healed from the leprosy of whiteness, may you have peace, may you have calm, may you have happiness.may you have peace, may you have calm, may you have happiness.
