Let's Talk About It: Introspection, Intersectionality & White Privilege w/ Kayla Gibson

Let's Talk About It: Whatever "It" Is

This is the 3rd episode of our Black History Month series. This week, Olejuru and Paula speak with Kayla, a sociology major at Mount Royal University and Olejuru's friend. Kayla is a lover of all things sports, kids, and learning about cultural diversity. Kayla tells us what she has learned on her journey to become more educated on issues of race, discrimination, and white privilege. In this open and honest conversation, we dive into the importance of not only educating ourselves, but being willing to initiate conversations on race, and then patiently listen with humility.
