Frank and Stan Chat No. 173

For the first edition of the New Year we were delighted to have Dr Ronda Zelezny-Green join us as our guest from sunny Grenada, in Southern Spain. Frank knows Ronda through their work as Board members (Ronda is the chair) of InnovateHer, a not-for-profit organisation committed to ensuring more females join the digital tech industries and ensuring those industries are ready for more females. Ronda is a digital changemaker creating social learning systems to empower Black people, women, people with disabilities, and other marginalized populations in the technology and education sectors. Serving as a mobile technologist, trainer, and researcher, Ronda has nearly 20 years of professional experience spanning five continents including working for the public, private, and civil society sectors. A Black and Native American-British woman with ADHD, Ronda brings a fresh insight into our weekly chat.Stan kicks off by considering the awful events surrounding the Post Office and its Horizon system. He ponders on the lack of governance, oversight, ethical leadership and paltry legal advice. Ronda then reflects on the lack of coverage of events at The Hague this week where South Africa brought a case of genocide for the actions of Israel in Gaza. Frank then wonders how keen youth groups really are in wanting to hear the voices of young people. This was brought about by a troubling blog written by Ishaa Asim, a young activist who has twice been a guest on Frank and Stan Chat. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
