Jeff James was one of the good White guys. At least, that's what he thought. But when he asked a Black friend how to become an antiracist, he had to think again.

In Giving Up Whiteness, James leads listeners on an intimate, humble, and disorienting investigation of what it means to be White in 21st-century America.

You have a voice. And you have God's permission to use it. In some communities, certain voices are amplified and elevated while others are erased and suppressed. It can be hard to speak up, especially in the ugliness of social media. Power dynamics keep us silent and marginalized, especially when race, ethnicity, and gender are factors. What can we do about it? Activist Kathy Khang roots our voice and identity in the image of God. Because God created us in our ethnicity and gender, our voice is uniquely expressed through the totality of who we are.
