Taraneh Erfan on Recognizing Our Privilege & Showing Up Human
Manage episode 408245962 series 3542041
I am thrilled to welcome Taraneh Erfan to the show. In this episode, Taraneh talks about growing up in Iran during the Iran-Iraq war, recognizing our privilege, how to decolonize our practice, and how to show up human with one another. Of course, we talk about our puppies.
We discuss whether it is ethical to volunteer abroad, and we talk about patriarchy, lessons learned, white supremacy, colonization and much more.
I did then what I knew how to do. Now that I know better, I do better.
~ Maya Angelou.
