Episode 8 : Discrimination and life experiences from Leah's POV
This episode is around Leah's experiences as a black woman and how it has shaped her life today.
Ways we can all become an advocate/ally in the black community:
Organizations to support:
Black Women for Wellness: https://bwwla.org/
Center for Black Equity: https://centerforblackequity.org/
Color of Change: https://colorofchange.org/
Diversify your social media by following and supporting black artists, poets, lifestyle & content creators. Here are a few of my favorite creators: @cleanfoodiecravings, @blacktherapistsrock, @balancedles, @michellcclark, @alex
Books: So you want to talk about race by Ijeoma Oluo & Don’t Touch My Hair by Sharee Miller
Support your Black Friends: Lead with empathy, be an active listener and ask questions about their experience (without trying to interrupt). Try making new friends outside of your day to day circle.
How to support your Black colleagues at work/general:
Be an ally, listener and supporter. Provide your Black colleagues with opportunities, suggestions, encouragement and support.
Bring diversity to the table, invite more colleagues from marginalized groups to influential gatherings and encourage them to partake in the conversation.
