An Intersectional Lens

In this podcast episode, we explore Ashley Brooks' inspiring journey and her groundbreaking book. Ashley's work sheds light on how community-driven civic environments impact personal development and well-being. Ashley's thesis takes us on a qualitative research adventure, using co-design and service design to create inclusive spaces. What makes Ashley's work unique is her dedication to centering the voices and needs of Black and Indigenous Women of Color (BIWOC) in public spaces. Through interviews, surveys, and collaboration, she empowers these women to shape inclusive spaces that celebrate their culture, enhance safety, promote learning, and honor their holistic identities. ashleymilanbrooks.comAn Intersectional LensLinkedInFacebookInstagram
