What does it mean to be an ally? Depends on who you ask. In this installment of (Un)fractured, we have two panels lined up: one of white Vermonters who consider themselves allies and the other BIPOC Vermonters.
The two panels won鈥檛 hear from each other, and that was intentional, to allow each group to speak their truths without criticism or judgement. We wanted to create space for conversations that were as open and honest as possible. We also hear from St. Michael's College professor Kathryn Dungy, who returns to help us digest the conversations.
Our guests are:
- Addie Lentzner, senior at Arlington Memorial High School and student representative for the Vermont Student Anti-Racism Network
- Susan McCormack, founder of
- Life LeGeros, professional development coordinator and member of the Waterbury Anti-Racism Coalition
- Chiyomi McKibbin, artist and associate director of admissions at the Vermont College of Fine Arts
- Puja Gupta Senning, psychotherapist based in Waterbury
- Myra Flynn, VPR engagement producer and musician
- Kathryn Dungy, chair and associate professor of history at St. Michael's College
Broadcast on Saturday, June 26, 2021 at noon.
