In our fourth episode, Roxy and Sarah are joined by author and DEI educator Shakil Choudhury. Together, they discuss the neuroscience of how systemic oppression impacts our brain, as well as concrete strategies to help us reduce bias in our communities. Shakil shares some of the powerful experiences that he has had on his antiracist education journey. His stories provide a window into the challenges and nuance of how we frame antiracist activism, and how we invite people to join us.
