This Week In White Supremacy 1HOOD braces for the ripple effects of Elon Musk taking subversive control over Trump's second administration which may lead to the fall of the U.S. government.1HOOD opens this episode questioning why Elon Musk continues to tout DOGE's influence on public policy despite not holding an official position in Trump's second administration proposing the conspiracy that Elon is the one running the United States based on his dramatic hosting of press conferences from inside the White House Oval Office. Treble leans into this unprecedented scenario and tilts the flow of thought to the scale of economic repercussions introduced by Trump's federal layoffs and their potential impacts on the local housing market in Washington, D.C. and what that could escalate to in the future.Jasiri then transitions the conversation to a DEI lawsuit filed against Starbucks by the Missouri Attorney General, alleging that diversity, equity, and inclusion policies have negatively affected the company due to not having enough white people to serve coffee to polarized Americans who are addicted to the caffeinated brand. Finally, the hosts read and respond to Blackmail from a Free Speech TV viewer named Laura Garrett who is concerned about the tone between Miracle the main attraction and white supremacy's favorite supervillain Saïd accusing him of being misogynistic, and opening the opportunity for “The Wonder Twins” to provide a glimpse into the history of their chemistry while addressing the serious topic of abuse present within male female dynamics. --To help us build liberated communities through arts, education, and social justice visit our website 1hood.org to purchase your official 1HOOD apparel or consider making a tax-deductible donation to 1Hood Media. --WATCH THE SHOW: youtube.com/@twiws--FOLLOW 1HOOD youtube.com/@1hoodfacebook.com/1hoodmediainstagram.com/1hoodmediax.com/1hood--About:This Week In White Supremacy is the 1Hood podcast discussing the cultural effects and weekly injustices surrounding white supremacy; through intelligent, insightful commentary and often comedic conversations this podcast is geared towards adults who want to digest the latest news and events with humor and Hip-Hop.--DISCLAIMERS: The views and opinions expressed during this presentation are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of 1Hood Media, 1Hood Power, and or its affiliates.

This episode, Shadé Zahrai interviews Caitlin Figueiredo, Founder and CEO of Jasiri Australia. She is also an Australian Youth Development Index Expert Panelist of the Ministry of Youth and Sport, Board Member and Vice Chair of Australian Youth Affairs Coalition and Ambassador of Alannah and Madeline Foundation. She was named Young Leader of the 100 Women of Influence in Australia, an Obama White House Changemaker and a Queens Young Leader. Some of her other past roles include, Head of Technology and Data for the Australian Red Cross, Task Force Member for the UN Women, Representative to the UN Annual Youth Assembly, Australian Director for The Global Resolutions Project, Founder and State Director of World Vision ACT.   Valuable Discussion Points (01:26) What is the story of Caitlin's leadership journey and what is her experience of leadership at such a young age?   For Caitlin, leadership is not defined by age. She started pretty young, and that was mainly because of her grandparents and parents who taught her from a young age that leadership and supporting your community has to start from the time that one is young. So it's always been very natural for her to be a leader. When her family came to Australia from Kenya, a couple of years after the White Australia Policy ended, they found it really difficult in the beginning to fit in. They faced cultural prejudice and racial discrimination. When Caitlin was little, they learnt that the whole part of themselves was to give back to their community, to serve their community and to leave where they live better than they found it.   (04:10) What is Caitlin's main program, Girls Takeover Parliament?   Jasiri Australia, the organisation founded by Caitlin, runs the Girls Takeover Parliament programme. Essentially, it's an experiential education initiative to create pathways to politics for young women both across Australia and around the world. The whole purpose of Girls Takeover Parliament is to open the closed doors to young women everywhere so that they can be shapers of democracy, so that they can see that even though they're not represented, they can be and that's why Caitlin and Jasiri Australia partner young women with politicians. They've recently had one of their first alumni actually run for office. The program has young women who work in the most senior ministerial offices in the country. They also have alumni go on to create similar programmes in India. The programme aims to create the next generation of politicians and what Caitlin likes to say, creating the next generation of Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.   (09:14) Has Caitlin ever experienced imposter syndrome?   One example where she experienced imposter syndrome was when she had just won the Young Leader category of the 100 Women of Influence in Australia. She had just turned twenty-one. She thought to herself that she had barely done anything in her life to win and deserve the award. She remembered just absolutely shaking, not having any courage, but she knew that she had to use that moment to overcome imposter syndrome.   (22:43) What does Caitlin's mantra, everywhere is an opportunity, mean?   There are infinite possibilities in life and that it's up to us to not only find them, but to use it. So what I'd like to tell young women everywhere is that if they have an idea and people tell them no, just keep working until you get a yes. If you don't get that, yes, straight away, find a back door and persist because there is always a way to overcome a problem and make your idea become a reality.   Key Learnings For women who hold back from speaking up in meetings, from applying for roles to moving into politics, Caitlin's advice is simple, to just do it, to just start. Don't wait until you think you have the finances or if you are at a certain age in life, if you see that you have the passion behind you and that you want to make a difference, then just do it. From the time we're little, we live in a life of uncertainty. For example, when we are babies and we want to take our first steps, we fall over, and we keep stumbling until we walk until that just becomes natural. So I would say that to any woman who feels like they receive pressure, pushback or discrimination, it will be there but I know that you are not alone and that everything good always starts off with being a challenge but that challenge eventually becomes natural and persistence will turn it into your everyday reality. Caitlin added two tools to the Leadership Toolbox, one personal and one practical. The personal is going back to the Duchess of Sussex to breathe, to live in the moment when you are on this leadership journey the practical tip is about elevating and expanding impact, if you were in a position to do so, support other women around you, go back to service, go back to community.   Quotable Quotes “Leadership is not defined by age.” – Caitlin Figueiredo   “I stumbled and fell. But I fell upwards.”– Caitlin Figueiredo   “It's often the individual who is cast aside. But when an individual joins the collective that is when you create waves of change and that is something I want to show and to champion women everywhere to go, actually, you have this power. Own it. Use it and that's how you can change the world.”– Caitlin Figueiredo   Important Resources and Links If you would like to learn more about how CommBank is ensuring women are advancing their growth in business, visit https://www.commbank.com.au/women-in-focus.html.   Host of the Leading Women podcast, Shadé Zahrai helps women hack their careers to advance faster, overcome their limiting beliefs and confidently create the life they deserve.

In this episode, we mark International Women’s Day with a special pod looking at women in leadership, from the boardroom to the front bench. From business to politics to higher education, women are still hugely under-represented in the upper echelons of a range of sectors. While many have made a clear case for the benefits of gender diversity in terms of organisational performance and culture, women still face significant barriers which are preventing them from reaching the top in their fields. So why is this, and what can be done to bring about much-needed change? On this week’s pod, our panel - Julie Hare, Professor Sharon Bell, Sophia Hamblin Wang and Caitlin Figueiredo - talk about the bold changes that are needed in order to disrupt the status quo.Professor Sharon Bell is Dean of the College of Asia and the Pacific at The Australian National University.Sophia Hamblin Wang is the Chief Operations Officer of Mineral Carbonation International, a technology platform that transforms carbon dioxide into building materials and other valuable industrial products.Caitlin Figueiredo is the founder of Jasiri and is an Australia Global gender equality activist.
