Reflecting on Our Privilege, Part One with Shaun Hamilton

The Elizabeth Cunningham Podcast

On this episode, host, Elizabeth Cunningham, talk with Shaun Hamilton, Video Editor, Gender Violence Advocate, Artist, Entrepreneur and my former "Sound Guy" reflects on his life as a white man in America and where his privilege has showed up.

Some Topics that We Cover
- How we are taught about cops as white kids growing up vs. how black and brown kids were taught about police.
- Talking about how white girls are taught that if they cry that things will be ok or that it will get them out of things (ex: speeding tickets).
- Concerning Black Lives Matter and the fight for racial equality: We need sustained action. There are a lot of minor victories up front but we need to keep going and keep taking action.
- That everyone, all humans, no matter their color, desire love, happiness and connection. We may have different cultures, skin tones, backgrounds and we should celebrate that. And if we can see each other as fellow human beings and see ourselves in one another, we can come together in that and then celebrate our differences.
- How do you stand as an individual and how do you stand as a business? What's the line between taking a stance as a business and news-jacking?
- How this all ties back into love. If we stand for love, justice, equality then we can't be worried about always "getting it right" we have to keep coming from that place, taking actions, being held accountable if those actions didn't work, and then keep going.
