The Power Of Storytelling — Racial Healing!
There is no secret that we are divided along racial lines.
Due to the social impacts of the pandemic, race and justice has been at the forefront of our daily conversations, especially on social media.
I felt like we were moving towards racial healing until I realized that we still have a long way to go.
We need people willing to do the necessary work. Not everyone will know where to begin and that’s where Erin Jones’s, Bridges To Heal US: Stories And Strategies For Racial Healing comes into play — It calls on US to both BE and BUILD bridges because each one of us is only one piece of the solution:
We do this by having these necessary conversations. In other words, find ways to disagree while centering the “other’s” humanity because our only way forward to healing seems to rest in our willingness to humanize the people around us.
Erin Jones acknowledges how we must do the self work first before we can have these necessary conversations.
The series of stories and strategies shared in this book are necessary tools that will make racial healing possible.
After reading Erin Jones’s, Bridges To Heal US: Stories And Strategies For Racial Healing, you will not only feel empowered to share your story, but willing to listen to the stories of others — You will get curious about those that look and act differently than you!
It’s time that we end the racial divides and heal!
