Matthew Dempsey: I'm Gay, White & Racist - VIDEO

Psychotherapist Matthew Dempsey talks about racism and owning his racist views. He also talks about how the gay community fetishizes people of color.
Matthew says:

My experience also lends itself to the illusion that I couldn't possibly continue discriminating against others, including people of color. Watch my latest video on how I own racism in an effort to heal.
