Send us a textJoin us as we welcome Dr. Akilah Cadet, a trailblazer in the fight against white supremacy, who shares her compelling journey as a first-generation Haitian-American. Dr. Cadet challenges harmful stereotypes, such as the myth about Haitians eating pets, and unpacks the broader impact of white supremacy on marginalized groups. Her powerful storytelling sheds light on the discrimination faced by many in the post-9/11 era and during the COVID-19 pandemic. We explore intersectionality and the courage needed to drive social change, emphasizing how narratives can be tools for both oppression and transformation.Our conversation takes a deeply personal turn as Dr. Akilah Cadet opens up about living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and major depressive disorder. With honesty and humor, she describes the resilience required to navigate life with these chronic conditions, sharing an alarming emergency room experience where she had to advocate fiercely for her own care. Dr. Cadet illustrates the power of reframing challenges, embracing her dynamic disability, and finding strength in self-advocacy and humor as essential coping mechanisms.We also highlight the exciting ventures of the Oakland Roots and Oakland Soul soccer teams, celebrating their community-driven approach and historic move to the Oakland Coliseum. Reflecting on the vibrant sports history of Oakland, we discuss the significance of creating an inclusive, community-centered experience. From record-breaking community investment rounds to personal connections with Oakland's cultural legacy, this episode is a heartfelt tribute to resilience, community, and the ongoing fight for equity and inclusion. Thank you to our listeners for your support and for sharing in the positive energy of this journey.Support the show

Let's talk about softness, and being soft in a world that can be so hard. What does it mean to be soft? I invited Dr. Akilah Cadet to share in this conversation about softness as a human. Together we explore the beauty of connecting with softness, within ourselves and in our relationships. We identify how softness can get squashed and the benefits of connecting with the parts of us that are soft. We unpack the complexity of being a human in a hard world, the dance between anger and softness, harmony over balance, and Dr. Cadet offers a bridge into accessing our agency and power when faced with hardship within ourselves and the oppressive systems around us.

It's been a year since the murder of American George Floyd, a crime that galvanised widespread protests and political organising in the US. The world took notice and conversations, protests and other actions against racism spread internationally. Twelve months later, we meet Dr Akilah Cadet, founder of Change Cadet, a US-based change management and organizational development consulting firm supporting diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging in the workplace. We take a moment to look back, measure the progress and ask what the next steps could be. What would true diversity mean for Fine Wine?

Since the events of January 6th 2021, we've learned more about what happened and more details of the nature of the threat. In this episode we break down some of the stories that might have fallen through the cracks or got very little attention by the mainstream press. There are allegations of fore-knowledge by some of the rioters, accounts that members of congress or their staff gave tours to some of the rioters that came back the next day. We are learning how close certain members of congress came to being captured. Also,the scope of police and military involvement in the attack. How these attackers communicated with each other through certain apps and the free speech implications of this technology. There were thousands of people that showed up for the protest and many of them got caught up in the moment of storming the capital and for that they should suffer the necessary consequences. However, there was a concerted effort by some to enter the Capitol with plans, schematics, and a mission to cause real lethal harm. These people need to be hunted down and brought to the appropriate justice. Lastly, we talk about where we go from here and how we get back to both sides working with the truth to move our country forward. We also say the names of our fallen this week Stephon Clark and Casey Goodson Jr. And we highlight two organizations doing great work in the collective justice community, Pledge My Check and Showing Up For Racial Justice. We can't stress enough the need to de-stress your life, space, and mind, while fighting for justice and equality. Please take care of yourself and each other. Like. Follow. Share. Subscribe.

We are less than 2 months away from the inauguration of the next President. Though, we can't wait until they're in office to do our work. Our work begins now. Our job moving forward is to make sure we are educating ourselves on these politicians, what they have stood for and against in the past, to ensure we raise our voices to hold them accountable now and going forward. The fight is not over. It has only just begun. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have troubling and concerning records when it comes to the issues most important to us. We must get involved in organizations that are mobilizing a proper response and putting the necessary pressure where it can be applied to let this next administration know: we are watching you and we will speak up when you make moves that harm the people. We also discuss how local elected officials were affected by organized movements and how thoughtful strategy can be applied to affect the change we want to see. We say the names of our fallen this week, Quawan Charles and Michiah Lee. And we highlight two people doing great work in our space, Oklahoma State Legislator Mauree Turner and Dr. Akilah Cadet, doing work with companies on anti-racism, diversity, inclusion, and equity. We want you to stay safe in these crazy times. Covid is out of control. Please do not travel if you don't have to. Let's make the sacrifice for each other this holiday season and stay home.

Guests: Dr. Akilah Cadet - Founder and CEO of Change Cadet, a DEI consulting and coaching firm. Erica Lovett - Head of Diversity and Inclusion at Condé Nast. During the recent racial reckoning that has overtaken the US since the murders of George Floyd it has become very common to see brands hoping to become part of the conversation. From black squares to messages of supporting Black Lives Matter, the corporate reflex to provide public-facing solidarity is often undermined by the very real, and very documented, internal struggles within the organization. The struggle of being Black in corporate America is not new, but the willingness to come forward with accounts of racist behavior and the receipts to back it up is, and many companies are dealing with unprecedented upheaval and deeply tarnished brands. How do you create space in these organizations to hear and support BIPOC employees while also being held accountable for racist policies and leadership that has genuinely harmed people? How do you show solidarity as a company with a racial justice movement when it seems like any misstep could result in “cancellation”? We invited two amazing women whose job it is to help organizations navigate this terrain. Erica Lovett does it from within as the always excellent but suddenly in-demand head of Diversity and Inclusion at Condé Nast. Her work in this amazingly visible company whose struggles in this period have been well publicized, is crucial to the rebuilding of its brand. Dr. Akilah Cadet has been running her own consulting and coaching firm for years to help leaders and organizations build anti-racist organizations with leadership and employees, and has seen interest in her company skyrocket since late May. Her valuable perspective as an outsider asked to show up for companies who may or may not be willing to do the hard work is a perfect complement, and the conversation we had was very real and very insightful for companies and employees who want a better, more equitable, anti-racist place to work.

I am indeed a white woman who learned lots of ugly stuff about white women (very significant role as slave owners) and the legacy of power and privilege that leads straight to Amy Cooper and how a bit more powerlessness could serve us well and not in the way you might think. And so much about how I and we can be better. I probably talked about some other stuff I learned from other rad black women this week who I've mentioned in previous episodes and I got amplified. I am just getting started. Please listen to The Change Cadet podcast yourself very intently and so openly and join me on this journey to “Wake Up, Grow Up, and Show Up.” Those are Adrienne Kimball's powerful, crystal clear, and memorable words.
