Decolonization and Divesting from Whiteness; Amidst the Pivot'ing'
Episode description
Kina Reed is a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion practitioner. She is also the creator and curator behind the social media platforms, The AntiBlackness Reader Project and Divesting From Whiteness. She holds a Master of Arts degree in Communication Studies and is a published researcher, conference presenter and public speaker. Her public advocacy is largely inspired by her academic research relating to social power and its intersections with race and gender identity constructions. She formerly held a dual faculty administrator appointment at Louisiana State University as the Director of Forensics.
In the conversation today, Kina tells us about how her calling into education was heard when she was 17 years old. She also tells us about how she’s very much in the pivot’ing’ right now, having left a job of nearly two decades in higher education. We hear Kina’s perspectives on shadow work and the realities of entrepreneurship, her decolonizing journey, and what her latest endeavours are!
