In this podcast episode, Kaitlin Johnstone and I talk about how to leverage privilege for change and the challenges of true allyship. Kaitlin is the founder of KindCotton, an apparel company that’s redefining kindness as being rooted in justice and grounded in action. Kaitlin, along with her husband Kevin, carries out their mission through their bold, beautiful, statement tees that are inspired by educational and social equity for marginalized communities. In our conversation, we delve into why even one voice can make a difference as we work to create a more equitable, diverse, and inclusive world for all.
