Hi guys, welcome to Adelting. This is the podcast, what I tried to figure out, all the things

that we're supposed to know as grown-ups but apparently don't know. And one of the

biggest parts of growing up is realizing your privilege. I came across an amazing account

on Instagram called No White Saviors and it really opened up my eyes to deeper, further

understanding of the nuances towards white privilege, racism and white

saviors and much of something we're going to be talking about today. So I am joined by Bruce.

Hi. And I'm also joined by Kelsey. Hi guys. So these guys, do you want to say a little bit

about yourselves, introduce your background, etc?

Yeah. Bruce, do you want to go?

Kelsey, you go first. Ladies first. Go ahead.

So selfless.

I am a full shorker by degree. I just finished my master's prior to that, had been living

in East Africa for about four years altogether. I lived in Uganda in ginger specifically.

Yeah, just that that's basically my background. Social worker worked in East Africa and child welfare.

Thought for a while that I was above the savior complex thought that because we had Uganda leadership

in our organization because we didn't take a front center role in serving the needs of the

clients that came through our program. I thought, okay, I'm evolved. I'm conscious.

I woke, so to say. But in coming back to the US and in doing my masters and in following accounts,

like Layla and Rachel Cargo, and just really digging much deeper into my privilege and

into racism and white supremacy, realize like there's so much that like I didn't address

that I, you know, that even in the moments when I was living there that I thought I knew

and I was I still had so wrong. And so I think, yeah, I think that's that was the motivation.
