#157 Tasneem Chopra OAM - Don't come at me with your misconceptions until you know who I am

Tasneem Chopra is a Professional Disruptor and an AntiRacism Champion. Her message is clear - there are so many Diversity & Inclusion roles out there, why does so much of the focus stop with Gender? This is a powerful conversation where we question how “equitable” became a dirty word, how giving space up at the table isn't popular thinking but it's necessary to get change. We talk about growing up in rural Victoria and the experience of wearing a HIjab in Melbourne, Australia post 9/11. Tasneem's leadership stands out. I often say being in the room with other leaders catapulted my growth. Spending time with Tasneem will do that for anyone. Tasneem was the inaugural 2021 Ambassador for Women of Colour, was awarded an OAM (Order of Australia Medal) in 2020 and has been named an Anti-Racism Champion by the Australian Human Rights Commission. Tasneem also has a Board Chairing role for the Australian Muslim Women's Centre for Human Rights. Words are powerful, how you say them makes an even bigger impact. -----------------------   Craving inspiration?

Kris's "Story for All Ages" today is a story about a wise queen preparing for life beyond her reign. It begs the question - "How are we preparing for our futures? - and - if it is our belief - how we might be preparing for our after-life?" Kris quotes from the Sufi poet, Rumi: "Enough of phrases, conceits and metaphors. I want burning! Burning. To become familiar with burning. Light up a fire of Love in your soul. Burn all thought and expressions away." And as Ramadan approaches, Kris introduced a special guest to us this morning, Silma Ihram - a leader from Adelaide's Islamic Community: Mother and Grandmother extraordinaire, pioneer Islamic Teacher, Educator, Principal, Educational Consultant, vice-President of the Australian Council for Islamic Education in Schools in 2004, vice-President of the Muslim Women's National Network Australia, Secretary General of the Australian Council for Islamic Education in Schools and most recently President of the Australian Muslim Women's Association. Silma's initial focus was on the Muslim understanding of Jesus - but as her talk progressed, Silma also gave us more general insights into Islam and Islamic beliefs about Mary (Maryam) and other figures from the Abrahamic Faiths. Her talk was followed by questions from Kris and other members of our Church, curious to learn more about Islam. Listen on!

Guest speakers Justin Mohamed, Victorian Commissioner for Aboriginal Children and Young People, and Joumanah El Matrah, CEO of the Australian Muslim Women’s Centre for Human Rights, join Nous Group’s Tim Orton and Deb May to discuss the continuing barriers to inclusion for Australians from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. The panel discusses how the dangers of discrimination and unconscious bias hold back individuals, companies, communities, and the country as a whole. Justin and Joumanah share their personal stories of facing racism, suspicion and exclusion and going on to become leaders in their fields, and share their advice for how these dangerous and restrictive attitudes can be dismantled and eventually eradicated. Collectively, the panel discusses how Australian organisations can create and sustain equal opportunities for individuals of all backgrounds to contribute and thrive in their workplace, thereby building stronger businesses and communities, and eventually a stronger nation, piece by piece.
