Speech Uncensored: A Speech Language Pathology Podcast

Episode 94: Part 2: More than Lip Service: Steps to Dismiss Racial Barriers in Speech Pathology with Marilouise Nichols, M.S., CCC-SLP, Stephanie O’Silas, M.S., CCC-SLP


Listen Later

Racism, discrimination, and bias have recently become topics at the forefront of conversations across the country. Inevitably, these conversations have also reached the field of Speech-Language Pathology. From ASHA’s position statement on racism, multiple petitions and calls-to-action for anti-racist clinical practice and academia, ASHA and NSSLHA’s virtual listening sessions on race in CSD, and NBASLH Talks 4-part series, there is a much-needed and timely movement gaining momentum at the national, state, and local levels to improve diversity, inclusion, and anti-racist efforts.


This two-part episode will discuss some of the racial barriers and implicit/explicit biases that have played a role in the homogenous racial and ethnic make-up of our field. Additionally, this episode will brainstorm ways to overcome these barriers in the future, and identify simple steps that every person can take to move towards anti-racist and culturally competent clinical practice.
