<P><EM>This week’s letter is from Krista
Tippett:</EM><EM> </EM></P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">One of the many, many experiences
I’m having in this moment is shame, a bone-deep </SPAN><SPAN
style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">embarrassment, at the weight of what has
been unspoken and thus unaddressed by white </SPAN><SPAN
style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">people for so long. By me, and in our life
together. Writer Eula Biss, who has been examining the experience of
whiteness for years, names its unexamined quality as primary ground
of its privilege: an ability to move through life “without thinking
about what your race means to other people, and what your existence
in a community means to the people around you.” And you can’t fully
think about anything, she points out, if you can’t speak about it.
</SPAN><A
href="https://engage.onbeing.org/r?u=8PJfsSHPCCkfAn6dgMO60d6n0zWiRJUIpDNvebT2YcwUWY3eVzGOTcBD5gMnxeLVf4WrP2ohz8lEVBzQYu6a6A&e=d75c5474de340cd212c70e06a05f8885&utm_source=onbeing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20200613_the_pause&n=2"><SPAN
style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">Our episode with her on talking about
whiteness</SPAN></A><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400"> has been shared
around the internet in the last few weeks. We offer it up again in a
changing world.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">There comes a moment when, in the
middle of a thought (you’ll still hear this, we did not edit
it </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">out) she interrupts
herself to name how inadequate and uncomfortable, in fact how
“mortifying” </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">it feels, to
talk about this out loud, even for her after all these years. She
continues, “I’m allowing this embarrassment to just wash over me,
because I really deeply, fundamentally believe in bumbling your way
through a conversation about this subject. ...We just cannot be
silent on this subject.” She confesses, “I feel like I’m constantly
touching the edges of my own comprehension.”</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">Which for me, this week, feels
like an honest way in. So does her straightforward suggestion
that </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">guilt — which, along
with shame, modernity has cast in a dubious light — can be humanly
and </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">socially productive.
We should own white guilt, not as a self-referential feeling of sad
and sorry, </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">but as a
mobilizing “cog in the machinery of consciousness.” She helps with
what we need hand </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">in hand
with better words and better silences — new muscles for watching and
shifting our own </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">behavior
in the most fundamental areas of our lives as neighbors, parents,
friends. She brings a </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">few
moral reckonings of recent years in illuminating interplay — how
white parents’ vigorous </SPAN><SPAN
style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">support of our children directly
disadvantages other children, even if it feels like parental
love </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">with no intended
malice. The phrase “opportunity hoarding” is a gift Eula Biss gave
me three </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">years ago and
that I pick up as a practical tool with new eyes and ears in a world
that may finally </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">be
rupturing not merely towards a greater consciousness but towards a
greater wholeness.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">But it is up to us to make that
real. To bumble forward even as our words and questions
and </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">actions are
mortifying in their lateness and inadequacy, again and again and
again. I restarted and </SPAN><SPAN
style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">rewrote this reflection, edited it to the
point of absurdity, a few dozen times. There is no
poetic </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">ending. May I
prove myself worthy of the work ahead. May you hold me accountable.
May we </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">create space for
an ever widening circle of redemptive white embarrassment and guilt
and </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400">capacity to
transform. For the point of speaking together differently is to live
together differently.</SPAN></P>
