Students of colour and their invisible labour in higher education

In today's episode Simone reflects on the invisible and unpaid labour that students of colour do within higher education.They use the article The Invisible Labor of BIPOC Students by Stephanie Tavares: https://www.ncan.org/news/560484/The-Invisible-Labor-of-BIPOC-Students.htm as a jumping off point, drawing on their lived experience within higher education.They talk about how activists are often coopted into doing DEI work for universities and how this work is invisible, unpaid, watered down and hindered. And how collage administrations exploit their students around these areas and the impacts this can have on BIPOC students.They then talk about changes that could be made to improve these conditions but also how there is so much resistance to these changes.Subscribe, rate and review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music or wherever you get your podcasts.
