Speech Uncensored: A Speech Pathology Podcast

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.
