This episode of How To Fail was recorded in front of a live audience at Dublin's Bord Gáis Energy theatre. Emma Dabiri is a broadcaster, historian, and bestselling author whose work delves into the complexities of identity, culture, and race through art history and current affairs. She's now written a number of books - culture shifting works which are a radical re-imagining of what we consider to be beauty. Her first book was an Irish Times bestseller and inspired a conversation around race that led to change regulations in schools and in the British Army. It was later adapted into an award-winning documentary. She's a fellow in African studies at London, SOAS and is the mother of two boys. Over on Failing with Friends, Emma talks about advice for someone in the audience who feels their singleness is a failure; what success looks like; when to know when to stop fertility treatment, and Elizabeth and Emma's thoughts on Botox among other things!

Jayda sits down with Emma Dabiri to hear her academically informed understanding of beauty and identity. As well as drawing on her own unique mixed Irish and Nigerian identify, Emma reflects on how her degrees in African Studies and History laid the foundation for her deep understanding of the impact of colonialism on how we perceive ourselves and our bodies. Emma shares her knowledge of global history and philosophy, tracing the emergence of racial hierarchies and explaining why Western culture's emphasis on appearance stems from colonialism. She contrasts this with pre-colonial Yoruba philosophy, which prioritizes inner beauty and shares her insights on body image, self-perception, and why dance and music is at the heart of connecting to herself with hope.Follow Emma DabiriFollow Jayda GFollow Here's Hoping PodcastMore on our guest Emma Dabiri books Emma Dabiri - The Guardian Emma Dabiri is an esteemed writer, television presenter, lecturer and speaker, Emma is the author of ‘Dont Touch My Hair' and ‘What White People Can Do Next' and the host of BBC Four's ‘Britain's Lost Masterpieces', the Channel docuseries ‘Is Love Racist' and the radio show ‘Journeys in Afrofuturism'.

A parliamentary committee has issued a new and scathing report about Primodos - a pregnancy test drug issued by doctors between the1950s and 1970s. The All Party Parliamentary Group on Hormone Pregnancy Tests says claims there is no proven link between Primodos and babies being born with malformations is “factually and morally wrong". The report claims evidence was “covered up” that it's possible to “piece together a case that could reveal one of the biggest medical frauds of the 20th century”. Around 1.5 million women in Britain were given hormone pregnancy tests which was 40 times the strength of an oral contraceptive pill. We hear from Hannah Bardell the SNP MP for Livingstone and a member of the APPG and Marie Lyon who gave birth to a daughter with limbs that were not fully formed - she had been prescribed Primodos. She has been campaigning for nearly 50 years.One in four children starting school in England and Wales are not toilet-trained, according to teachers who now spend a third of their day supporting pupils who are not school-ready, a report has found. That's according to the early-years charity, Kindred2 who polled 1,000 primary school staff and 1,000 parents. Only 50% of parents think they are solely responsible for toilet-training their child, while one in five parents think children do not need to be toilet-trained before starting reception. What's the reality in schools and whose responsibility is it? We hear from Steve Marsland, Headteacher, Russell Scott Primary school in Denton, Greater Manchester.Last week we got excited about big hair having a comeback after Miley Cyrus' backcombed tresses at the Grammys made headlines. The larger-than-life hair-do was a fun change from the straight hair that has dominated fashion for decades. But it didn't last long - Paris Fashion Week is now in full swing and we're back to the slicked back buns. So, will big hair ever truly come back and why did it fall out of fashion? Hair historian Rachael Gibson, and academic, and author of Don't Touch My Hair, Emma Dabiri join Anita Rani to discuss big hair.In a new series, Woman's Hour is starting frank and open conversations about how porn has shaped lives and relationships. Reporter Ena Miller has spoken to a woman who had to decide where to draw the line around her partner's porn use, and we revisit an interview with Erika Lust, the adult filmmaker whose work focusses on female pleasure and ethical production.Anita takes a walk through female history looking at 101 objects with the writer Annabelle Hirsch. There are artefacts of women celebrated by history and of women unfairly forgotten by it, examples of female rebellion and of self-revelation. They delve into a cabinet of curiosities ranging from the bidet and the hatpin to radium-laced chocolate and Kim Kardashian's ring.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Kirsty Starkey Studio Manager: Duncan Hannant

Femicide – the intentional killing of women and girls with a gender-related motivation – affects every society around the world.According to UN Women, nearly 89,000 women and girls were killed intentionally in 2022 – the highest number recorded in the past 20 years. And over half of all female homicides were committed by family members or intimate partners.This episode puts a spotlight on this global atrocity. Experts from Italy, Kenya and Mexico share insights on how femicide is impacting their countries. We examine its root causes, how women's movements are countering it, and what further action is urgently needed to bring about truly lasting change.While comprehensive legislation is a critical starting point, we hear why challenging gender norms which make misogyny so deeply entrenched in society is fundamental if we are to curb femicide and see transformational change.SpeakersSara Pantuliano (host), Chief Executive, ODIDinah Musindarwezo, Co-CEO, Womankind WorldwideDiana Jiménez Thomas Rodriguez, Senior Research Officer, ODINicoletta Mandolini, Researcher, CECS, Universidade do Minho, PortugalRelated resourcesGender-related killings of women and girls (femicide/feminicide): Global estimates of female intimate partner/family-related homicides in 2022 (UN Women report)10 ways to transform gender norms (ALIGN booklet)Transforming gender norms for women's economic rights and empowerment (ALIGN report)Is no space safe?

Irish-Nigerian author and broadcaster Emma Dabiri is giving the middle finger to modern beauty standards. Growing up, Dabiri felt pressured to conform to “oppressive” beauty ideals, to shrink herself to fit in and to straighten her afro hair. Now, as she explains in her new essay ‘Disobedient Bodies', it's time to rebel against those suffocating beauty constructs. From going makeup free to embracing her natural hair, Dabiri tells Róisín Ingle about the power that comes with reclaiming your unruly beauty. Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, Sharon and I reflect upon and explore how we feel about doing this work, our conversation includes the following touchpoints: we don't want to do this forever, so we approach this work with caution, race and racism are part of my life, not my passion, and constantly weighing up whether this is going to wipe me out, this work takes something from you What was our resistance to undertaking this work?Is this work the only thing I think about Race and racism  - is not the only thing I think about, am I in denial about these painful aspects of my life?We have witnessed awful experiences for trainers undertaking this work we aren't talking about ourselves.It's our lived experience and personal (the material)We are role models for black brown and white participants.What do black practitioners get out of anti-racist training?Separate spaces are needed for participants.We need to protect participants who are sharing harrowing stories.We need to honour those painful storieswhat do white participants bring of themselves to the training space?What stories could they admit in separate spaces?What are the critical conversations for white people?What impact do two black trainers have on a mixed group?How are white trainers challenging their inherent racism? the need for white-only spaces will be]enable discussion of epiphanies, which can often be waring and burdensome for black participants, there is a need for honesty What are the issues for us as black trainers: should we be doing this training, often told  'You're the experts', What does that even mean?As educators inevitably we water down the material, consequently do we lose aspects of our integrity? Leaders tend to want step-by-step answers to anti-racist practice.  Change comes from deep introspection, not a list, there needs to be some sweating and self-challenge involved.   There is value in exploring social graces, it's a start.What does allyship mean?What can we as trainers do for ourselves?Are you ready for that?

She puts the origins of western beauty ideals under the spotlight and explores ways to rebel against and subvert the current orthodoxy. The book is accompanied by an exhibition, The Cult of Beauty, at the Wellcome Collection from 26 October 2023 to 28 April 2024. It was in the Wellcome's archive that the filmmaker Carol Morley came across the works and writings of the artist Audrey Amiss. In her new film, Typist Artist Pirate King, Morley creates an imaginative tribute to an unjustly neglected and misunderstood artist.

On the cusp of the Women Deliver Conference in Kigali, Rwanda this episode explores the growing anti-rights agenda relating to women and sexual minorities.Women's rights and freedoms are being compromised and are under threat in many parts of the world. Well-funded, ultra conservative forces are pushing a narrative which directly targets the liberties of women, girls and sexual minorities.How can we counter the anti-feminist backlash in a coordinated and effective way? Can advocates for women's rights work together to confront and dismantle this dangerous trend? And what role can global pacts and policy movements play in the face of landmark legislation such as Roe v Wade being overturned? We speak to four experts heading to Kigali about the challenges, and reflect on how feminists movements might come together to present a coordinated response.SpeakersSara Pantuliano, Chief Executive, ODIMaliha Khan, President and CEO, Women DeliverEvelyne Opondo, Director of the International Center for Research on Women, AfricaAlvaro Bermejo, Director General, International Planned Parenthood FederationAyesha Khan, Senior Research Fellow, ODIRelated resourcesFacing the backlash: what is fuelling anti-feminist and anti-democratic forces?

Emma Dabiri is an Irish writer, academic and broadcaster - and an expert on race. Born to a Nigerian dad and an Irish mum, Emma experienced extremely different environments growing up: first in a predominantly black area of America and then moving to Southern Ireland where she found herself in the opposite - a very white and racist society. She remembered how a bookshop in Dublin was her sanctuary and saviour as a child. It turned out it was a radical bookshop - and we agreed that books can provide a quiet rebellion when you're growing up.Emma has two little boys and currently lives in Margate where she takes advantage of regular sea swimming. She has written two books 'Don't Touch My Hair' and 'What White People Should Do Next', with her third book just about to be published when we chatted. Emma's writing looks at the concept of race and how the concept of black and white has been constructed in fairly recent history, plus she sometimes shares her own experiences of racism. We also talked about the Black Lives Matter campaign and assessed how much has changed since the death of George Floyd.Spinning Plates is presented by Sophie Ellis-Bextor, produced by Claire Jones and post-production by Richard Jones Hosted on Acast.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by Glasgow-based rapper, author and activist DARREN McGARVEY aka LOKI!A thoroughly engaging and informative chat to light a fire under you right here, as Pip connects with Darren and jumps in the deep end from the very start! That's how we like it. It's actually perfect because Darren has a lot to say, all of which is guided towards society and shining a light on some of the sides of it that often get left in the shadows, ignored, or basically hidden from public view. He has skin in the game too, having lived in a part of Glasgow which hasn't always been what you might consider the safest part of town, and with alcoholism in the family, so it comes as no surprise that there's a feeling of catharthis in his quest to enlighten and create positivity in his work. Speaking of work, you can catch Darren on road not long after this podcast releases, and also make sure you peep his rap music which is proper too. Very sick stuff.

For this archive debate from 2019, we invited a panel of top speakers to discuss the motion: The West Should Pay Reparations For Slavery. Should there be a broad programme of reparations – not just financial compensation, but acknowledgement of the crimes committed and the lasting damage caused by slavery? Or would this just worsen social tensions by reopening old wounds? Arguing for the motion were Kehinde Andrews, Professor of Black Studies at Birmingham City University; and Esther Stanford-Xosei, reparations activist and lawyer. Arguing against the motion were Katharine Birbalsingh, headmistress and co-founder of Michaela Community School in London; and Tony Sewell, educational consultant and CEO of the charity Generating Genius. The debate was chaired by social historian, author and academic, Emma Dabiri. ... Did you know that Intelligence Squared offers way more than podcasts?

This episode is a recorded event of a conversation with the 2022 Charles A. Heimbold, Jr. Chair for Irish Studies, Irish author, broadcaster, and scholar, Emma Dabiri, and Kimberly DaCosta, Associate Professor of sociology at NYU. Emma Dabiri has written two very successful non-fiction books: Twisted (published as Don't Touch My Hair in Ireland) and What White People Can Do Next. Her work in the arts, fashion, and the media are complemented by her academic teaching and research in African Studies and Visual Sociology. She is currently completing her PhD at Goldsmiths University, London. The Charles A. Heimbold, Jr. Chair of Irish Studies is held in the Spring semester of each academic year by a distinguished Irish writer. Inaugurated at Villanova University in 2000, it has become one of the most prestigious Irish Studies positions in the United States. Kimberly DaCosta is a sociologist interested in racial inequality and, in particular, the contemporary production of racial boundaries. Her book, Making Multiracials: State, Family, and Market in the Redrawing of the Color Line (Stanford University Press, 2007), explores the cultural and social underpinnings of the movement to create multiracial collective identity in the United States. She is currently writing on how interracial extended kin relationships speak to questions of interracial empathy, care, and politics. She teaches courses on race in different societies, social mobility, consumerism, and the commercialization of intimate life. This event was co-sponsored by the Villanova Center for Irish Studies and Villanova Falvey Memorial Library and took place on April 4, 2022.

Straight hair is BACK with a bang, with women returning to relaxers, silk presses and new chemical straightening processes such texture releases. We want to know - is the natural hair movement over? And does this mean it failed? In part one of this miniseries, we're chatting about Emma Dabiri's 'Don't Touch My Hair' to try and answer the question, can Black hair ever be just hair?

Welcome to the Wintering Sessions with Katherine May.Producer Note: You'll notice a slight change in Katherine's audio in the second half of the podcast.

Thank you!This week Katherine talks to Emma Dabiri, author of Don't Touch My Hair and What White People Can Do Next.

Anti-racism and Socialism The problems with liberal responses to racism are no reason to dismiss or downplay the importance of anti-racist struggle as some on the left do.

For the vast majority of the Irish Diaspora, St Patrick's Day offers a regularly scheduled opportunity to get in touch with all of those warm, fuzzy notions of Ireland and home. But what if your relationship to home is a little bit more complicated? Emma Dabiri is the best-selling author of Don't Touch My Hair and What White People Can Do Next – two monumentally important discussions about race that have offered vital nuance and context at a time where more and more people have become engaged with identity politics. She also happens to be Irish! In fact, there are plenty of parallels between her life and Annie's. She grew up in Dublin, walking the very same streets at the very same time. Then, like Annie, she moved to London and started a new life, and a family, away from Ireland. But unlike Annie, her nostalgia for Ireland will always be tempered by her memories of growing up black in the overwhelmingly white context of Dublin in the '80s and '90s. It's led her to have a more delicate, and less rose-tinted, understanding of Ireland than many of her compatriots – but it's also imbued her with a strong sense of potentiality for Ireland's future. This is an honest conversation about Ireland's past, but it's also an optimistic look at that future, and the ways in which a country that, until recently, has had little experience of diversity – might be able to start with a blank slate, and avoid some of the pitfalls that have dogged nations with long, tangled histories of systemic racism. But more broadly, it's a conversation about home, See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This episode is inspired by Emma Dabiri's 'Don't Touch My Hair,' a book on why black hair matters and how it can be viewed as a blueprint for decolonisation.

Does wearing an Afro make you an activist? Are plaits political? And is straight hair _so_ last year? This episode we are super excited to welcome academic, activist and author of the powerful book “Don't Touch My Hair”, Emma Dabiri!
