In this episode, my host Diane Little and I, have a discussion about running for school board as service to every single child, with Anita Galiano. Anita shares with her how her parents' unique sense of family and community--three generations of educators--along with being raised on a reservation in Nebraska and South Dakota informs her sense of family, community, work, and everything she does. She uses this sense of community to face the DEI attacks on the school board in her predominantly white community--standing for every single child, "ruthlessly and relentlessly."
This week, our guest is Anita Williams Galiano who is a seasoned professional in executive operations and strategic development, with a specialty in healthcare technology and international supply chain management at Johnson & Johnson. An alumna of the University of Iowa, her BA in Communication, focusing on Organizational Design, underpins her success in strategic facilitation, fundraising, and project management. Anita's deep-rooted commitment to community building is inspired by her family's legacy in education and conservation, including her mother Harriette, a fourth-generation educator, and her father Rufus, a dedicated soil conservationist. Spending more time in the public and non-profit sectors in recent years, Anita was recently named the Interim Executive Director of the Stoutsburg Sourland African America Museum as well as serving a second term on her local school board.
