In this week's podcast, Dr. Lisa and Dr. Shaunna address some current events that have made recent headlines including law enforcement special units like the now disbanded Memphis Scorpion unit, the Iowa caucuses, and the Divine 9 and Founder's Days for historically Black Greek-lettered fraternities and sororities.

In this week's episode, Dr. Shaunna and Dr. Lisa address various aspects of rest, who gets to take it, and why it should be conceived as an act of resistance.

In our first episode of 2024, we discuss what’s ahead for the year, how to be a critical consumer of the media and how the pursuit of balance in reporting gives credence to lies and objectively problematic positions, and we wrap with a discussion of Draymond Green and his NBA suspension.

For our last episode of 2023, we step into Swift vs Beyoncé, artificial intelligence, and what were the most annoying DEI trends of 2023. Pro tip: there were a lot of annoying DEI trends and occurrences in 2023, it was pretty hard to choose!

Dr. Shaunna and Dr. Lisa take on the arson attempt on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's childhood home, the cruelty of feedback provided to older women celebrities and how one woman clapped back. We also explore what you can do if your white woman CEO or supervisor thinks they know it all when it comes to DEI and either intentionally or unintentionally derails a DEI process because they gate keep decisions and actions believing they are the only one who knows the "right" way to proceed.

This week, we answer a listener question on how to label images without knowing how someone identifies while also ensuring marketing includes a diverse representation of people. This leads us to a larger conversation about using the name of someone or something from a group to which you do not belong for your own profit. Lastly, we dive into travel privilege.

This week, all three phases call out equity in business practices. Dr. Lisa and Dr. Shaunna are fired up about a few business practices that simply don't work for small, minority-owned, women-owned businesses. If you want to improve your protocols, policies, and procedures to make working with minoritized vendors easier, listen in.

Book banning, emotional honesty and the erosion of critical thinking.
