Black All Year – Unlearning Whiteness

What does it take for white people to stop being “not racist” and start being anti-racist?

Steph Edusei sits down with Nikki Brooker, also known as the Anti-Racist Mum, in a fearless and deeply personal discussion exploring the uncomfortable, necessary, and transformative work of challenging white supremacy from the inside out.

A white mother to a Black mixed-heritage daughter, Nikki shares how her family’s experience of racism shattered her worldview, and how she turned that pain into action through radical accountability, learning, and allyship.

Together, they unpack:

  • Why “I’m not racist” isn’t enough
  • The emotional toll of raising Black children in white spaces
  • What it means to unlearn your conditioning
  • How white tears, fragility, and silence uphold harm
  • The power of language, labels, and showing up with integrity

This episode isn’t about comfort. It’s about truth, growth, and doing the real work.
