White people work is a podcast designed to help white folks come to better understand themselves and grow in taking responsibility for their presence in the world. While white folks and their growth in awareness and responsibility is the primary focus, folks of color are encouraged to be a part of this journey and speak into it. Season one will have ten episodes, each with Scott answering a different question related to race and whiteness. Music is performed, recorded, and mixed by Scott Hall, mastered by Erin Hamilton.
Season Five, Episode Four: Exploring White Defensiveness
In this episode Scott muses on the roots of white defensive responses when the topic of race comes up, especially around DEI, reparations, or affirmative action. In seeking to start a conversation, Scott explores the white cultural value of fairness and the way that it seems to be inconsistently applied, or the challenges to how it is defined depending upon one's point of view. Scott would love to have you express your own thougths and perspectives on the white people work facebook group (just search for it!) or to share with him througth the whitepeoplework.org page. Thanks for listening!

Season Five, Episode Three: Leaning into Our Humanity
In this episode, Scott takes his first stab at one of the themes of this season: how do we lean more into the humanity we share with all people? Starting with the third tenet of whiteness--that it urges us to attempt to transcend our humanity--Scott works his way from there to his direct experiences of some of the assumptions and worldview embedded into whiteness that have kept him from living and working in the full range of his humanness. With stories of his kids, Dr. Randy Woodley, and one of his best work experiences of his life, Scott invites us to consider the ways we've been conditioned with assumptions that quietly hurt us by cutting us off from community.

Season Five, Episode Two: Growing in Empathy
In this episode, Scott shares some of his favorite stories of his own journey of growing in empathy, particularly as a result of displacing himself as the only white family on a block of African-American and Central American residents in South Central Los Angeles. Additionally, Scott references the very recent Senate interview of Jeremy Carl of Montana, part of which can be viewed here on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcKQcZrWhwk.
