Engage out of compassion Finally, it is essential that we consistently do enough of our own self-work and healing to engage other whites out of a space of compassion and care while we also hold them accountable for efforts to change their racist values, attitudes, and behaviors. As we identify the multitude of times we have acted out of internalized dominance and racist attitudes, we may develop the necessary humility to connect with whites as peers and colleagues as we support each other’s healing and growth.
