“When we say that we need to run diversity training, what we actually do is reassert the centre ground. We say we need to train people who don't hold minoritized identities, (the centre ground (everybody who we understand)) on all of those people who do have minoritized identities (those at the margins (everybody that we don't understand)). So what it becomes is a reassertion of the idea that there can be a centre ground, when in actual fact, it's kind of an impossibility. If we are talking about diversity, the question always has to be, diverse from what? Diverse from WHO?”In this solo episode, Angie questions the limits of ‘diversity training’ that focuses on othering minoritised groups, and instead suggests that DEI training that examines ourselves has longer lasting effects within an organisation.In the latter part of the episode, Angie poses some questions to ask yourself next time you run training for and about minoritised people.Connect with Angie on her website - www.angelabrowne.co.ukA full transcript of this episode can be found at www.being-luminary.simplecast.com/episodes/wanna-know-the-limits-of-diversity-trainingThis podcast was written and presented by Angie Browne.
