#EP2 “Black speakers are not just for Black History Month”
Welcome to this series of bitesized episodes in collaboration with the Diverse Speaker Bureau, where in honour of BHM we showcase some of our amazing Black speakers.
We advocate that Black speakers should not just be wheeled out for Black History Month to talk about diversity and inclusion, racism or Black history, but that Black voices should be heard equally and that equity should be a year round mission.
If we are serious about delivering equity, we need to give real opportunities to Black speakers, pay them properly, and truly demonstrate representation across the board, all the time.
In this episode we talk:
Intersectionality and equality intro
- Being Black AND Neurodivergent
- How to recognise and harness your special skills
- What happens when you apply for 1000 jobs
- Writing a book when dyslexic and publishing a book with no money
- Building a mindset for success
- Investing in yourself and building your personal brand
- Why paying Black speakers is important
