In Episode 106, Ben chats with Dr. Mari Cerda about her experiences across multiple intersecting identities. They delve into the history of Mesoamerica, the lasting effects of colonization on the field of behavior analysis, the loneliness of possibly being the only Mestiza and Autistic behavior analyst in the entire field and her work with both her non-profit institute helping marginalized individuals get into the field of behavior analysis and her not-for-profit clinic which boasts an employee group consisting of 90% neurodiverse individuals.
