In this episode, Dr. Sujata Ives talks with Melissa Venable, NCDA Director of Professional Development, about the important role of leadership in a world that is growing more diverse. Dr. Ives is the 2023 recipient of NCDA's Diversity Initiative Award and the current president of the Maryland Career Development Association. She has a genetic condition that affects her vocal cords so that they don't close completely, resulting in what she describes as a "jiggly" voice. What role are you taking in creating a world you can be proud of? Sujata shares her personal history adapting to a new culture and maintaining motivation for leadership work through experiencing self-discovery, developing change readiness, and focusing on sustainable impact at the individual level and locally. Sujata shares how she is incorporating these interests into her project as a current member in NCDA's Leadership Academy. The conversation also explores ways we can all engage with NCDA's growing international membership and issues a call for increased attention to mental health in career development.RESOURCES:NCDA's Global Connections CommitteeUnited Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)BIO:Dr. Sujata Ives is a Workplace Global Consultant and the 2023 recipient of NCDA's Diversity Initiative Award.

Despite their literary and cultural significance, Afro-Latino memoirs have been marginalized in both Latino and African American studies. Trent Masiki remedies this problem by bringing critical attention to the understudied African American influences in Afro-Latino memoirs published after the advent of the Black Arts movement. In The Afro-Latino Memoir: Race, Ethnicity and Literary Interculturalism (University of North Carolina Press, 2023) Masiki argues that these memoirs expand on the meaning of racial identity for both Latinos and African Americans.  Using interpretive strategies and historical methods from literary and cultural studies, Masiki shows how Afro-Latino memoir writers often turn to the African American experience as a model for articulating their Afro-Latinidad. African American literary production, expressive culture, political ideology, and religiosity shaped Afro-Latino subjectivity more profoundly than typically imagined between the post-war and post-soul eras. Masiki recovers this neglected history by exploring how and why Black nationalism shaped Afro-Latinidad in the United States. Trent Masiki is assistant professor of Africana Studies at Worchester Polytechnic Institute.  Reighan Gillam is an Associate Professor in the Department of Latin American, Latino, and Caribbean Studies at Dartmouth College. Her research examines the ways in which Afro-Brazilian media producers foment anti-racist visual politics through their image creation. She is the author of Visualizing Black Lives: Ownership and Control in Afro-Brazilian Media (University of Illinois Press).

Forced by conflict to flee her birthplace of Afghanistan with her family when she was just two, first to a Refugee Camp before re-locating to Australia, Durkhanai Ayubi has grappled with questions around identity and belonging much of her life.In Adelaide she has found the freedom to think, explore and seek out answers to many of those questions, as well as the opportunity to forge a connection, for herself and the broader community, back to her family's roots - through the sharing of Afghani food.

As an Afro Peruvian person living in the Canadian diaspora, Roxana Escobar Ñañes explains the concepts of human geography as a point of entry to understand how our lives are shaped by spaces and how our social interactions are produced. She explores Afro Peruvian communities as domestic spaces for healing and connection. She argues that “these spaces become places because we give them meanings and emotional attachments and we transform them.” Also, Roxana posits that although being black became an archetype of negativity that haunts people’s lives, blackness becomes the center of human geographies - Blackness becomes healing. She finishes her talk by encouraging us to celebrate black identities and Afrolatinidad in which we enjoy the company of others in relation to our communities as we support each other when it comes to challenging racism, machismo and patriarchal mindsets in Latinamerica as a revolutionary act. * Bio: Roxana Escobar Ñañes is an Afro-Peruvian Ph.D. student in the geography department at the University of Toronto in Canada. She is an activist and scholar who investigates the relationship between human bodies/geographies of Afro-descendants’ rights in Canada and Latin America. * Sources: Escobar, M.R.

Multiculturalism no longer enjoys political nor popular support. Far Right and other forms of extremism are growing and identity politics are threatening national solidarity. We need a new way of thinking about how we live together in an increasingly globalised world in which complex and multi-faceted identities are fast becoming the norm. Professor Ted Cantle will set out the theoretical and practical case for 'interculturalism' and explain how it provides a new and positive perspective for the future of social relationships.
