In this conversation, Tricia and Daryl Sinclair discuss the launch of Daryl's podcast, DEIJ Hot Takes, which aims to explore diverse perspectives in the DEIJ (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice) space. Daryl shares his journey into the DEIJ field, emphasizing the importance of learning from various practitioners and the need for a platform that showcases different approaches to equity work. They delve into the concept of 'hot takes' as a way to invite opinions and foster dialogue, rather than presenting definitive answers. The discussion also highlights the significance of creating safe spaces for conversations, the intentionality behind podcasting, and the need for systemic changes in education to promote equity. Daryl draws parallels between breakdancing and DEIJ work, emphasizing the value of lived experiences and diverse media in shaping understanding and fostering inclusivity.
