“What happens when an African American befriends members of the Ku Klux Klan? Daryl Davis has persuaded more than 200 white supremacists to leave groups like the KKK. He shares how his extraordinary journey began, what drives him to do this work, and what the rest of us can learn from his approach. Please be aware that this episode contains a description of a violent and racist incident and use of offensive racist language in that context.” Resonating with the advice: ‘don’t try to change people’s minds, help them to change their own’, Davis says “I did not convert anyone, I am the impetus for people to convert themselves,” by being “curious not furious”, and “offering a better perception” instead of “attacking their reality”.
