Listening recommendation: Nice White Parents

Sometimes the truth hits home so directly that it makes you cringe. Such is the case with “Nice White Parents,” a podcast about errant efforts over decades to integrate a middle school in Brooklyn. It tells some universal truths about white privilege and how it is wielded by people who on one level have the best of intentions, but on another level work hard to maintain the inequitable status quo. Great stuff from the people who brought you the famed “Serial” podcast. Listen at the link above or download it through any podcast app.
