Sandy Broadus and Niko Merritt provide concrete, everyday examples of some of the more common microaggressions and harm "allies," "liberals" and "progressives" cause, repeatedly.

Microaggressions are what Sandy describes as "drive-by racism." They are done so casually that they are often minimized or dismissed as unimportant by the person causing the harm. Yet, they reflect both conscious and unconscious biases, stereotypes, and racist tropes that need to be actively interrogated, called out, and disrupted by allies.

Sandy and Niko also the adverse effects these actions and omissions have on others, sometimes with dire consequences, including health problems, lost employment opportunities, exclusion, and lesser quality of life for those who are stereotyped.

Sandy and Niko also provide homework consisting of actionable steps and Calls To Action for white would-be allies committed to working on this vital aspect of white supremacy.

Sandy and Niko debunk the myth of so-called “reverse racism” with historical, systemic, and power-based context, evidence, and examples.

They stress that allies seeking to join antiracist movements must listen to, follow and be led by Black and non-white voices that have traditionally been excluded and disempowered, instead of centering whiteness and white comfort.

They discuss how white mythology and false equivalencies derail necessary progress towards racial reconciliation, reckoning, and accountability.

Students will come away equipped with facts and common examples empowering them to disrupt false, ahistorical narratives about who holds racial advantage and power, not just in America, but globally.

Sandy Broadus and Niko Merritt explain tone-policing as a derailing tactic used to prioritize white comfort over Black and brown humanity during difficult discussions about the lived experiences of marginalized people. Tone policing is violent because it disrespects the humanity of the speaker by focusing on the method of delivery instead of the substance of the message.

One such example is the racism inherent in the "angry Black woman" trope. Black women are entitled to be angry about the dehumanization of our community, especially our children. Yet, so-called allies will disrupt a necessary conversation about white complicity to insist, "You get more flies with honey than you do with vinegar, and you won't win people over to your cause if you alienate us like this by being so angry and insulting the people who are fighting for you."

Sandy and Niko instruct on the need for white people struggling with being true allies to investigate and interrogate their beliefs and their insistence on being perceived by Black and brown people as “one of the good ones."

When white people insist on white individualism as an excuse for inaction in dealing with their fellow white people and distance themselves from the harm whiteness inflicts on non-white people they hinder true allyship, which requires direct action and personal accountability for collecting other white people.

Sandy Broadus and Niko Merritt explain why white people wanting to be allies must start by addressing the elephant in the room head-on: whiteness. They explore how white identity impacts how white people move through the world with unearned advantages and skewed viewpoints based on whiteness alone.

The result is that they will continue to impact non-white people adversely unless and until they confront their own conscious and unconscious biases and prejudices, seen through the lens of whiteness, and call out their friends, families, neighbors, and co-workers for prejudice, bias, bigotry, and racism.

Sandy and Niko instruct on the origins of whiteness as a legal category that opposed blackness and afforded privileged status. They discuss the weaponization of race worldwide to enforce the supremacy of whiteness over all other peoples. They cover the history of colonialism and the role Christianity played in the subjugation and dehumanization of non-white people, to purposely sow division to prevent unification among oppressed people and rebellion against those whom they outnumbered. Students will learn about the various categories of whiteness among immigrants, who were ultimately allowed to "become" white enough so that they could be co-opted into systemic anti-blackness.

Students will receive an overview of the brutality and barbarism of whiteness throughout the world, over centuries. They will learn about the proliferation of race and whiteness on a global scale as a valuation measure running throughout all systems, to concentrate and preserve economic power for white people. Students will also learn how mass migration and declining European birth rates created anxiety that further fuels antiblackness, which accounts for eugenics and contributes to modern-day propaganda about the Great Replacement Theory.

Sandy Broadus and Niko Merritt break down some of the more frequent, problematic behaviors of self-appointed "allies," including the "Devil's Advocate" and the "White Savior." In this discussion, they explore how white people centering themselves and their "guilt," flashing their ally credentials and activism, and crying are all harmful and violent and have no place in Black liberation movements.

They also address claims of "white exhaustion," pointing out that Black people live with the daily impact of systemic racism and have reason to discuss "Black fatigue." They point out the hypocrisy, privilege, and violence in claiming to be tired of Black people talking about how racism affects them.

Sandy and Niko explain and break down the insidious, violent blend of racism and sexism that is weaponized against Black women and is known as “misogynoir,” as coined by Maya Bailey.

They tackle media representations perpetuating and normalizing negative stereotypes that adultify and hypersexualize Black girls from early childhood. They also point out how commonly misogynoir shows up in so-called “liberal” and “progressive” spaces, including among white women and self-identified “feminists.”

Misogynoir is pervasive and has been indoctrinated globally, including by non-Black people of color, shaping and pushing out negative, anti-black, misogynistic tropes about Black women. These disrespectful stereotypes often undermine true allyship and is why Black women are understandably distrustful of “allies”
Sandy and Niko discuss the way Black women in America have been violently mistreated for the sake of medical knowledge and in the areas of reproductive rights and criminal justice, and had our contributions stolen and erased, for example in the “Me Too“ movement.

This session will provide listeners with historical examples of classic misogynoir that has been made invisible and acceptable in the mainstream, and issue a Call To Action for you to dig deeper into understanding America’s deliberate abuse, disrespect and dehumanization of Black women and how you may have participated in it.

Students will receive guidance on what they can do personally to call out an disrupt these common assumptions and frequent microaggressions WHEN (not IF) they happen in their workplace and other communities.

If not you, then who? It's been hundreds of years. Your “time’s up,“ too.

In this lesson, you will examine deeply rooted, systemic patterns of distrust and dismissal of Black voices, due to white supremacist historical teachings. At the conclusion of this lesson, you will have reason to reflect on and understand how gaslighting and engrained disbelief of Black and brown people further traumatize and harm BIPOC communities.

Learn how to center and validate lived experiences — even when they're uncomfortable or unfamiliar to you because they differ from yours. You don’t know what you don’t experience.

Sandy and Niko talk about the violence that is inherent in white feminism, including tone policing Black and talking over us to center white viewpoints that ignore and negate lived Black experiences that differ, based on white advantage.

They discuss America’s history of demanding, extracting and feeling entitled to Black labor – particularly the labor of Black women – and for free. They also tackle the way white women ignore the active, violent role white women played as willingly violent, abusive cruel owners and traffickers during enslavement of Black people.


This lesson addresses the lack of acknowledgement, appreciation and credit for Black women’s intellectual, emotional labor for America’s overall betterment.

Niko and Sandy also share honest truths about Black people’s experiences with outright theft of our work by white people who think of themselves as “good people“ who insist “we’re on your side.“ They provide modern-day examples of how white people overlook the racism and anti-blackness among their political favorites and popular cultural icons.

From this lesson, students will learn about how liberals tokenize Black people for their own egos and self-aggrandizement. They will be pushed to understand the true meaning of “intersectionality“ in truly diversifying liberal spaces to become truly inclusive, instead of dangerous and undesirable for Black people.
