Alicia Berber - Head Women's Basketball Coach at Riverside City College and Her Amended Lawsuit Against The Riverside Community College District: S4:E13

Alicia Berber has endured decades of inhumane treatment. She has been abused, denied access, been overlooked, endured misogyny, sexual harassment, gas lighting, and retaliation. She's lost her home, feared for her life on many occasions, and endured more than two decades of mental anguish and post-traumatic stress. Her physical health has suffered and yet she continues to fight because she refuses to give in to the bullying, lies, and the machine. She wants to not only send a message to the Riverside Community College District and Riverside City College, but to the world, that you do not fuck with Title IX and women. This lawsuit is about Alicia. But this incredible college professor, coach, wife, mother, sister, and daughter is fighting for all the girls and women out there. She's fighting for inclusion and equality. She wants the next woman who comes into not only her position at Riverside City College but in all leadership positions that she has their backs and that the courts come to a similar conclusion. This will then make it that much easier for the next person to fight until we bridge the gap between the marginalized and the most privileged - white men. Thank you for joining me for this special edition on the amended lawsuit filed by Alicia Berber against RCCD. We hope this episode offers you some inspiration, motivation and education. Your voice matters. I started this podcast after the murder of George Floyd and I had no idea where it would lead me and I still don't, but in the meanwhile, I will continue to do my best to serve, to be an ally, and a vessel to not only create a safe space for people to share their story but to help educate and mobilize in hopes for a better tomorrow. Thanks for watching and listening and remember, it takes a village everyone. Much love...Peace.
