Listen "How Labels and Diagnoses Intersect with Bias and Inclusion"
Episode Synopsis
Our special guest Dr. Amoy Hugh-Pennie engages in a passionate and engaging discussion about the intersectionality of educational and medical diagnoses with the biases of labels, symptomology, race, gender, and socio-economic status. This in depth conversation shines a light on why certain groups of individuals are diagnosed with specific disorders later in life than other groups, how labels can increase negative bias against an individual, and how inclusion can sometimes be misconstrued to mean conform. Dr. Hugh-Pennie shares potential solutions that address how we educate our youth and address the inequities of diagnosis and bias within the educational and medical systems.
