1. Dr. Renee Boynton-Jarrett
In the first episode of A Seat at the Table: Conversations on Leadership, Equity and Innovation, Dr. Lynette Fraga talks with Dr. Renee Boynton-Jarrett, an associate professor of pediatrics at Boston University’s School of Medicine. Lynette asks Dr. Boynton-Jarrett about experiences that shaped Dr. Boynton-Jarrett's understanding of community, and her own development as a leader. Together they reflect on their experiences as women of color in positions of leadership, and what leadership looks like amid a pandemic and renewed calls for racial justice. Dr. Boynton-Jarrett shares what she believes is needed to ensure the child care sector is more equitable, inclusive and just.
