What can “woke” white people do — if anything — to promote racial justice in America?

A lot, actually, prominent public speaker David Campt teaches in a new allyship workshop opening this weekend. He joined Detroit Today host Stephen Henderson to discuss some best practices in solidarity.

“What we see is people in social justice saying, ‘you need to go back and deal with your community,’ but we don’t give guidance about how to do that,” he says.

Campt, a Detroit native, emphasizes personal relationships as the key to convincing white skeptics of the realities of racism.
