Oxford's Diversity Problem with Vee Kativhu
from Hear Her Out Hosted by Faye White
My guest this week is the incredible Vee Kativhu. Vee is in her final year at Oxford University studying Classical Archaeology and Ancient History. Growing up just outside of Birmingham, being black and educated in the state school system, she is not the stereotypical Oxford student. However, she is adamant to change this as she believes that the education system should not give intelligence a class or a colour. Vee shared tips with her 31,000 YouTube subscribers about how to achieve their academic dreams and earlier this year she hosted a free academic conference called Empowered By Vee. In this podcast, Vee shared her views on Oxford's diversity problem and her experiences of being a black student at Oxford today. We also spoke about academic imposter syndrome, the importance of female friendships and her meeting with Michelle Obama. --LINKS-- Follow me on Twitter: www.twitter.com/fayecwhite Follow me on Instagram: bit.ly/2HoUHaj Email me: [email protected] Vee's YouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/2QnVH0I Vee's Instagram: https://bit.ly/326coUb
