DEI Undone

The disjuncture between the stated goals of equity, diversity, and inclusion policies and their application has long been a theme we've covered on the pod. This week, we continue this conversation with Dr. Sabreena Ghaffar-Siddiqui, co-author of the book, DEI Undone: The Rise, Fall and Rebirth of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion alongside Dr. Ardavan Eizadirad. Sabreena is an anti-imperialist, decolonial scholar, sociologist, and public intellectual who has worked at the centre of Canada's DEI industry and was forced out from her institution after speaking up for Palestine. In our conversation today, we talk about the death of DEI, building community and how doing otherwise is always possible. Get DEI Undone today! Thanks for listening!
