Let's Dig Into It: Rosie Sanchez
Manage episode 283414525 series 2864756
In this second addition to our "Let's Dig Into It" BIPOC interview series, I chat with my good friend Rosie Sanchez who works for Defenders of Wildlife. She explains why the Quetzal is her favorite bird, the cultural importance this iridescent bird has within her family, and how it got it's red belly. We dig into the separation of soul and science, DEI efforts within conservation organizations, the trauma that BIPOC suffer because of it and the power that we as BIPOC folx have right now to enact change. We also laugh at our first experiences with field work and how cute baby Cedar Waxwings are. Rosie is an amazing human doing amazing work and she is made of sunshine and badassery!
