New Gurus: 4. White Women's Tears
Dinner is served. A dozen white women, a frank discussion of racism, and one rule - no crying. Join Helen Lewis in exploring the world of the diversity gurus.
The rise of the Black Lives Matter movement brought renewed interest in corporate diversity gurus. But Regina Jackson and Saira Rao were ahead of the curve, pursuing their own unique anti-racist education programme.
Tired of talking to individual white women about their racism, they decided to invite a group of them for dinner, and confront them with their bias and bigotry. There was one rule - no crying.
The New Gurus is a series about looking for enlightenment in the digital world.
