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.
