S2E4 Allyship & Fragility: Calling in, not calling out

The Mix: A Diversity Podcast - A podcast by saif edu

Categories:

In this episode we dive into the topics of allyship and fragility. What does it mean to be an ally? How should you respond when someone points out a problematic belief you hold, or thing you say? Why is everyone a work in progress when it comes to allyship? We examine these concepts through the lens of current news stories and our lived experiences. Specifically touching on news surrounding hate crimes against the asian community in the US, strained allyship between the Black and Asian American communities, and recent allegations of racism in the British royal family across the pond. We hope this conversation will invite you into an opportunity to do and be better.   Disclaimer: The content of this podcast and the opinions expressed are my own and don't necessarily represent IBM's positions, strategies or opinions.
