E31: Put The Oxygen Mask On Ourselves: How Do We Support Each Other?

The overarching question can I trust my own people to have my back? 

Imagine standing next to a 150-story building; you’re looking up,  and through the windows, you can see your fellow brother and sisters of color working diligently, and you ask yourself, how can I get to that level? What kind of support do I need from my community to rise? What type of support should I expect from us – my people? If I ask for help, will I get it at a deep level?

In this episode of Inclusion Unscripted, Margaret Spence will pull the scab off the dysfunction within, the lack of support throughout, and we will take a deep dive into the specific ways professionals of color must start supporting each other.
