What is a "Karen"?

Updated: May 12

Hold the phonešŸ–šŸ¾šŸ“±ā€¦



What is a ā€œKaren?ā€šŸ¤”


According to Google, a Karen is slang for a white woman that is entitled.


And, in this episode, Rethinc partner– Marc Etienne explains the entitlement of not only ā€œKarensā€, but other groups such as those who identify as men for instance.


āŖBut, let’s bring it back for a moment…


The only way to acknowledge yourself as being ā€˜entitled’ in certain situations is to put yourself in diverse groups, recognize there’s a pattern that needs to be fixed, & continuously question or humble yourself to be better.


And, to be honest…yes, minorities & women have been suppressed for as long as we can remember, but ALL humans no matter their gender or race have felt entitled at least once in their lives.


ā“It’s up to all of us to commit to the daily act of questioning our belief systems, thoughts, & actions in order to make some real change. You up for the challenge?
