• November 2020
Even though Doyin Richards grew up as a self-described "preppy, non-threatening Black kid", it didn't prevent him from being called the N-word by a white person for the first time as a 9-year-old. His talk explains how racism brings about expectations and fear for Black men of all kinds, how it almost made Doyin take his own life, and what actions white people can take right now to be anti-racist.
