This episode is a real treat for y'all!

Keecha and JaTaune, who both have deep roots in the South, invite us into a timely conversation about racial equity and liberation and remind us how much progress is now possible only because of the tireless contributions of Civil Rights activists and movements that were born in the South.

At a time when false narratives run rampant, it is critical to remind us of the South's legacy and contributions to racial justice.

Words matter.

"We never should have done that in the first place."

These words would go a long way in acknowledging the long history of racial oppression that enabled the vast accumulation of wealth in this country. These words would signify the need to reconcile, repair, and chart a new course.

Instead, we often hear, "that was a long time ago."

Racial oppression is not a "thing of the past" -- it was one of the defining factors of the 2024 presidential election.

How are you using your words to chart a new course?

Although racial equity work has gained momentum, particularly in 2020, the current rhetoric about communities of color is alarming, dangerous, and will seriously impact our country's infrastructure.

How do we combat these false narratives?

Truth-telling. Individuals - people of color - are not to blame for systemic failures (or systemic inequities). Broken systems are responsible.

When organizations first embark on their racial equity journeys, they commonly ask mainstream search firms, "where are all the leaders of color?"

When personal networks and resumes are prioritized over values, culture, and fit, newly hired executives are set up to fail and leave within months. This is why half of all executive searches ultimately fail.

Ify Walker, CEO of Offor, an executive search firm, connects the dots between racial equity and executive searches, granting us an inside look into "The Offor Method", which has cultivated a network of more than 20,000 leaders.

This is a heavy time for racial equity practitioners, no matter when your journey in this work began.

Take this time to unapologetically rest, grieve, rage, release, move, connect, and feel.
