In a world which you are expected to fit in a box, many people of color, African Diasporan, and indigenous people have consciously and subconsciously relied on cod-switching to survive in a colonized culture. Some code-switch inadvertently that they will slip into a different language or accent without even realizing it or intending to do it. Most code-switch to survive in corporate and commercial environments for their livelihood.

Code-switching is often seen as a double edge sword that many experience negative situations due to their code-switching or being told that they talk "white."

The Moana Nui Podcast hosts a line-up of panelists to discuss the ins and outs of code-switching, positive and negative experience around code-switching, and how to still be your authentic self in the corporate world.

Host - Barr Foxx

Christian Oh
