Synopsis

How many of us have robotically asked, “How are you?,” and given the zombie response, “Fine,” when we could all use that as a moment to gently and authentically check in with ourselves and one another? Jenna Arnold prefers to ask “how your heart is doing,” digging beneath the social dance to reveal a nugget of true feeling. One of Oprah’s “Top 100 Awakened Leaders,” the core of Jenna’s work revolves around teaching white people how to relearn and re-categorize social niceties and biases in order to genuinely reflect on reflex responses, learning how to actively and authentically work from a place of honesty and support. Her book, Raising Our Hands, asks white women to work against ingrained complacency and do the work necessary to become better allies.
