9: From Martin Luther King to Black Lives Matter with Dr Kathy White

This very special episode of Edgy Ideas addresses issues of race
from MLK to BLM, on a journey experienced by my esteemed guest Dr
Kathleen Pogue White. Kathy met Dr King as a student and shares
her unique experience of living and working through periods of
hope and despair in relation to racism in the USA and
beyond.  As BLM puts racism back at the top of an
international agenda, Kathy shares her experience of working in
organisations to address ‘white supremacy’ and structural
racism.  Kathy brings immense depth of wisdom to share,
drawing on psychoanalytic insights and a lifetime experience of
working with leaders from all sectors.
