This episode features a conversation with Dr. Kesha Morant Williams, Etown College’s Senior Advisor for College Diversity, Equity and Belonging. We discuss Dr. Williams’ 2021 essay, “I Can Breathe,” published in Survive and Thrive: A Journal for the Medical Humanities and Narrative as Medicine. In the essay, she reflects on a racist hate crime she experienced on the campus of Penn State Berks when she worked there in 2020. We also discuss other topics around race in the United States, including the concept of “Black respectability,” the recent Supreme Court decision on affirmative action in higher education, and her work promoting diversity, equity, and belonging at Elizabethtown College.
