Welcome to the first episode of DPOCA's (yet to be named) podcast hosted by Kezia and Kowand. In this introductory episode they discuss their experience at Durham and what led them joining DPOCA as President and VP.

If you don't already know of DPOCA we are Durham People of Colour Association, a student group that serves to represent the needs and welfare of all students that identify as an ethnic minority.

Navigating university as a student of Colour has its challenges and Durham certainly lives up to that. When we're not protesting, campaigning, or seasoning our food, you can find us here, spilling the tea on all things racially ethnic.
