Episode Six (Part 2): Boards And Black Tokenism - What It Really Means To Belong

Welcome to Part 2 of Boards And Black Tokenism - What It Really Means To Belong (https://www.givingblack.ca/episode-si...) . In Part 1 (https://www.givingblack.ca/episode-si...) , our guests and I tell the jarring story of how we were recruited to a board as token Black members, and quickly discovered that as board members, we were not, and would never be, treated as equals. Here in Part 2 we specify the concrete actions that people and organisations should take to deal with, and avoid, Black tokenism. Continue the conversation with Mide Akerewusi (  / mide-akerewusi-b-sc-m-sc-econ-csr-p-cdep-1...  ) , Nneka Allen, CFRE, COC, PCC (  / nnekaallen  ) , Founder of The Empathy Agency (http://https//theempathyagency.ca/) and Múthoní Karíukí HBSc, MPNL, CFRE (  / muthonikariuki  ) , as we explore the profound story shared in Us and Them (https://www.collectingcourage.org/our...) .
