"Understand racism and white privilege"

Why are there so few women in senior leadership roles in insurance? How can culture shifts within organisations facilitate female talent retention? How can we encourage companies to consider DEI initiatives not simply as tick-box exercises but as integral means of driving positive change? In this episode, we are thrilled to be speaking with Hannah Pring, Head of Compliance at Lockton and host of the incredible Miracle Working Mums podcast! In conversation with Sandra Lewin, Hannah discusses the importance of women establishing a supportive network both within and beyond their organisations to support them, particularly as they rise the ranks to more senior positions. She explores the importance of challenging the hegemony of ‘alpha male' energy in insurance and the broader finance sector, and the power of feminine energy and active listening.   Quote of the Episode “How business is done needs to be more diverse… the pitfall for some organisations can be to appoint somebody into a diversity role… and that does an excellent job. I really believe all contribution is really valuable, and everything's turning the dial. But, how do you turn the next notch,? It's been really important to make sure the messages are getting out there. But we need to make sure we're not tell[ing] a story that doesn't really ring true day-to-day in people's roles.” Hannah argues that while the insurance industry is beginning to make great strides in its diverse recruitment efforts, this will not have a significant, long-term impact within companies unless their culture also changes. Diversity needs to be embedded into the fibre of everything an organisation does. When designing and distributing products; when thinking about clients, is your company thinking about the diversity of its clients, all of their needs, and how accessible these products might be for them? Thus, whilst bringing in diverse talent is a great first step, the culture in-house also needs to shift. Otherwise, companies may find that this new talent doesn't stay for very long.   Key Takeaways Hannah argues that, historically, feminine traits have been considered ‘degrading' within insurance, and across the financial sector. In an industry where the ‘alpha male' mindset continues to prevail, actively displaying and celebrating one's femininity often may lead to others thinking less of you. Hannah suggests that women have typically progressed more successfully when they have presented more generically ‘masculine' attributes, thereby suppressing their ‘feminine' qualities. This is particularly the case in the upper echelons of the industry which continue to be dominated by men. Those women who do reach senior leadership roles may feel a pressure to assimilate themselves into that environment, and become homogenised, rather than embracing and displaying their diverse feminine approach. It's about time that the perpetuation of ‘alpha male' energy in insurance is challenged. Hannah argues that the incorporation of alternative energies can be extremely powerful, and can foster a more supportive and inclusive environment in the workplace. There's a lot of power in silence, and actively listening in a leadership position can help new voices and ideas be heard. This is particularly important as we endeavour as an industry to promote female talent retention, which often drops off as women begin to plan families. We need to have open conversations within the industry about how we can support women who decide to have children, and who often wish to retain their careers. These topics, along with issues around women's health, remain highly taboo across insurance, but they need not be. Hannah's ‘Miracle Working Mums' podcast aims to fill this void, enabling women to share their stories of planning a family alongside their working lives.   Best Moments/Key Quotes “I feel a huge responsibility to other women in insurance… there's so few beyond mid-levels. Most organisations are managing to recruit 5050. And to keep up to mid management sort of 5050. But you really see that sort of proportionality drift off beyond manager level.” ‘All sorts of underrepresented groups have the capacity to do what everybody else does, but not the opportunity.' ‘The best skill that you can have as a leader is actually active listening, but in order to actively listen, you have to be quiet.' “I feel like talking about planning a family and starting a family is something that is actually difficult for women to do, because we often talk about our personal life with our friends and our peers. But actually, oftentimes, you are approaching [having a family], at different times to your peers, or with different challenges. And you may or may not have someone at work that you feel you can talk to, because there's a whole dynamic when you're talking about trying to get pregnant, or challenges with getting pregnant, or what have you, at work.”   Resources Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race by Reni Eddo-Lodge Work Like a Woman: A Manifesto for Change by Mary Portas Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain Miracle Working Mums Podcast: – https://miracleworkingmums.podbean.com/ Miracle Working Mums Episode 13 – Helping female business owners get clear on their goals to turn their desires into revenue – with Eleshia Harris: https://miracleworkingmums.podbean.com/e/e13-helping-female-business-owners-get-clear-on-their-goals-to-turn-their-desires-into-revenue/   About the Guest Hannah currently specialises in Regulatory Compliance with a wealth of experience in the London Insurance Market.

Novelist, filmmaker and activist Tsitsi Dangarembga joined host Bhakti Shringarpure from Harare, Zimbabwe. Dangarembga was awarded the 2021 PEN Pinter Prize which honors literary merit as well as fierce political commitment. The conversation explored the shape and state of "literature engagée" or the literature of commitment today and Dangarembga said that she sees no choice but to narrate the reality of Zimbabwean society and people. She admitted to be shaped by feminist thinking at an early age and strove to develop her writing style with the goal to introduce a "new kind of character to the world." Dangarembga also spoke about how hard it is to avoid being appropriated by capitalist forces and the many obstacles to producing literature as well as film. She also said that while the publishing industry is changing, it has too long been dominated by people who know almost nothing about African aesthetics, styles and modes of storytelling. Finally, Dangarembga said is now reading very selective narratives that she hopes, "displaces me from the center in my own mind." This list includes The New Age of Empire: How Racism and Colonialism Still Rule the World by Kehinde Andrews, Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race b Reni Eddo-Lodge and Undoing the Revolution: Comparing Elite Subversion of Peasant Rebellions by Vasabjit Banerjee. Tsitsi Dangarembga is a Zimbabwean novelist, playwright, and filmmaker. Her debut novel, Nervous Conditions (1988) was named by the BBC in 2018 as one of the top 100 books that have shaped the world. Dangarembga completed the Nyasha and Tambudzai trilogy after when her novel Nervous Conditions was followed by The Book of Not (2006) and This Mournable Body (2019). She is also a screenwriter and her films include Neria, Everyone's Child, Mother's Day and I Want a Wedding Dress. She was awarded the 2021 PEN Pinter Prize and was a finalist for the Booker Prize in 2020. Bhakti Shringarpure is the Creative Director of the Radical Books Collective and the host for their BookRising podcast.

On this week's episode, we explore the complexities of existing as a 20-something woman with Frances Williamson. We discuss whether women can "have it all", flexibility within marriage and children, being a successful woman in a male-dominated world, and what it means to be the narrator of our own lives. Frances' perspective made this one of the most refreshing conversations we've ever had about existing as 20-something women in the 2020's. This conversation prompted us to ask ourselves why we want the things that we do, and we hope it encourages you to do the same!

In this episode of Masters of Community, we speak with Nicole Crentsil, CEO at Black Girl Fest. She wanted to solve her problem of not seeing enough people like her in the world of tech, culture, and art by creating her own event called Black Girl Fest. They expected 300 people but 3000 people showed up! Today, Nicole is an Angel investor and was named in the Forbes 30 under 30 list. She was also named as a LinkedIn Changemaker in 2021. In this episode, Nicole talks about how diverse communities can be kept buzzing through intersectional programming, how to launch your community through a highly successful first event, and how to grow your community beyond its core identity and location. She also sheds light on why organizations indulge in tokenism, how they can avoid it, and how they can truly embrace inclusion and diversity. Who is this episode for? Community managers who are interested in building and engaging highly diverse and truly inclusive communities. Three key takeaways: 1. Intersectional programming in diverse communities: Communities often exist in spaces where there are so many different stories and channels in which people's stories interconnect and expand. There's no single path human stories will take. Accessible, inclusive, and authentic programming that taps into stories emanating from intersectional commonalities is the key to connecting to different subgroups in diverse communities. 2. Keys to a successful community launch event: Expect your launch event to be successful if it's a one-of-a-kind event in your sufficiently-large community. People in under-tapped communities will invest their time and money to find opportunities and form connections among people of their own kind. Start small and engage people in your immediate networks who believe in your cause and who are smart and competent in their jobs. Operate with an ethos of passing the torch back to your community. 3. Growing your community beyond its core identity and location: If the issues dominating your community are also reflected in similar communities in various parts of the world, expanding the community should not be a big challenge. Talk to regional champions and seek their help in expanding the values of your community; you can borrow from the CMX Connect architecture. Tap into common events such as International Women's Day (the full month of March) for Black Girl Fest. Notable Quotes: 1. “It's so obvious when a brand or an organization who's trying to be more diverse or trying to speak to a specific community hasn't put that community to the table to make the decisions, to decide, to plan, to produce...it's sometimes offensive, it's disingenuous and it's fake” 2. “I think organizations start with diversity and that's why we end up seeing more tick box scenarios where it's just like, fill the room with people that have different religions and backgrounds and skin tones. Then great. We've solved the problem... And it's like, no, you haven't solved anything. You've just got a bunch of people in the room.” 3. “If you don't embed it as not the thought and you just embed it like every day, you wouldn't have to worry about this DEI thing that you think is a problem” Answers to rapid-fire questions: 1. What's the most impactful book you've ever read or a book that you love to give as a gift to others? “Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race” by Reni Eddo-Lodge. 2. If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would that food be? Pesto pasta and cheese. 3. What's a community moment you'll never forget? A group of older Black women held Nicole's hand and told her how amazing her work is and told her to not stop. It was a very emotional moment for her. 4. Have you ever worn socks with sandals? Yes. 5. If you could sit down for coffee for an hour with one community builder, dead or alive, who would it be? Michelle Obama. 6. Which is your most exciting angel investment? Nicole's first investment in a company that essentially created hair extensions that match black women's hair texture because their product-market fit was genius. 7. What advice do you have for someone who wants to become an investor, but doesn't feel they have the identity of an investor? Find your community first and learn to utilize that because the network effect is quite powerful. 8. What's the weirdest community that you have been a part of? A Tumblr community where they loved playing the Sims game. 9. Tweet-sized deathbed advice? Believe in yourself first, before you need anyone else to believe in you.

We're already over a year post the murder of George Floyd, and the global reckoning this atrocious act sparked, but really, how much can we say has changed? This podcast has taken a while to come out, so we're not as up-to-date as we could be, however, the issues we speak about in this episode are long standing, and universal. Ceramics, especially in the UK, is often the territory of the white middle classes, and we have a long way to go in the discipline before we can call ourselves an equitable, access-for-all type of field. The UK has the added excuse of that good old ‘we're not racist' report that the government brought out in March 2021, and centuries of profiting from a colonialism that operated with the human cost of slavery happening largely in other countries. There's a culture in Britain of ignoring the difficult questions and our particular brand of racism is more insidious than the out there in your face type that is more likely found in America. Perhaps because of this, as with the open studio model, the US ceramic field is slightly further on than us when discussing access, institutional racism and the self organised networks that have sprung up to combat it.I speak exclusively to artists from America for this episode, and we hear from some truly inspiring ceramic artists who are challenging institutional models in education, gallery and beyond to create more equitable spaces and communities for and by artists of colour.

This is a guest episode where Nommy Mlalazi and I discuss the issue of racism and think about the Black Lives Matter movement that became prominent in May 2020 following the death of George Floyd. So much change has come as a result of this movement but there is still a long way to go. Nommy was a speaker at the St Albans Black Lives Matter Protest in June 2020 and in this episode she speaks about her experience growing up in a predominantly white area and how she and others she knows have been affected by racism. She shares her thoughts on different issues linked to race and offers valuable insight on how we can further educate ourselves and how we can strive to be actively anti-racist as individuals and as a society.

In the last two decades, the UK has deported thousands of people to Jamaica, many of whom left that country as children and grew up in the UK. Luke de Noronha talks to Alice Bloch about his moving and urgent study of four such young men. How have racism and inequality shaped their lives? What hope remains? And why does language matter when we talk about ‘foreign criminals'? A conversation about borders and exclusion, citizenship and listening.

During the podcast, Robin recommends the following authors and thinkers, along with their works, that have influenced and inspired her on this subject: Layla F. Saad - "Me and White Supremacy" Charles W. Mills - "The Racial Contract" Eddie Moore Jr - 21-Day Racial Equity Habit Building Challenge Reni Eddo-Lodge - "Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race" Carol Anderson - ex. "White Rage" Michael Eric Dyson - "Tears We Cannot Stop" Ijeoma Oluo - "So You Want to Talk About Race" Resmaa Menakem- "My Grandmother's Hands" Next up on the podcast is Yolanda Butler Stephens, Chief of People and Culture at Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago

This week's episode is a conversation between two white Americans, directed at calling our white listeners into a conversation about race. To our non-white listeners, we invite you to listen and reach out if there is anything we could improve on. We are still unlearning & relearning, but to stay silent is to be complicit so we are using what platform we have to hold space for this essential conversation. Robin DeAngelo popularized the term white fragility with her book, White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism. This book is a great place to start if you're a white person looking to unlearn some of your internalized racism. There is some controversy surrounding it, so I will say it is not a perfect book - but no single book on racism ever will be. An easy break down of the concept of white fragility can be found in these articles: https://www.newyorker.com/books/page-turner/a-sociologist-examines-the-white-fragility-that-prevents-white-americans-from-confronting-racism https://www.tolerance.org/magazine/summer-2019/whats-my-complicity-talking-white-fragility-with-robin-diangelo A much more in depth, scientific dive into the concept can be found in this journal article by Robin herself: https://libjournal.uncg.edu/ijcp/article/viewFile/249/116 White Rage is a term popularized by Carol Anderson's book White Rage: The Unspoken Truth of Our Racial Divide. I haven't read this one, so I can't speak to it. However, a fantastic breakdown of how white rage has divided this country since President Obama's election can be found here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/is-white-rage-driving-our-racial-divide/2016/06/22/fbeec9fc-22a8-11e6-aa84-42391ba52c91_story.html White Dominate Culture Norms are the norms & standard practices that exist throughout this country that make public spaces more comfortable & safe for white people than anybody else. Here is a great, short list of examples and their alternatives! https://www.cacgrants.org/assets/ce/Documents/2019/WhiteDominantCulture.pdf Finally, if you're in the UK I suggest Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race, by Reni Eddo-Lodge. It is written by an incredible Black, feminist, British woman who explores the specific brand of racism that exists in the UK. For other areas of the world, please reach out - I'm happy to help find resources that are specific to your geopolitical location. Racism & white supremacy are a global problem, but they do show up a bit differently depending on where you're located.

In 1981 a riot broke out in South London between police and the locals – most of them black people who had been maligned for years at the hands of police and systematic racism. These clashes were so monumental that they were dubbed The Brixton Uprising. But what caused the events? How did locals respond and what was the aftermath? In this episode we jump headfirst into this huge part of British history. Riots get a bad rap (people crying about broken property), and we think it's time instead to direct that energy at the reason for the riots – hello, people are being denied human rights. Here are some additional resourcesThe Windrush Scandal is still a major issue with black and brown people left uncertain about their future in the UK.

Welcome to Part 2 on our conversation about Racism in Africa, with Muma Sinkala. I love speaking to Muma because she is not afraid to call a spade a spade. If you have not see the first episode on this topic, make sure you go watch it first. Last week our conversation covered colonialism, African dependency on white saviours and Africans being the gatekeepers. This week we spoke about what we as Africans can do to curb racism on our continent. "A great disservice is the African history we learn in schools is written by foreigners" "Visitors to the continent should question why they cannot assimilate in Africa yet manage everywhere else" "Change starts with individuals. Do the research, read and evaluate why you behave certain ways and think certain things."   Braiding used to hold rice and gold in plantations: https://www.bet.com/news/features/1619/the-history-of-hair-braiding-in-black-america.html   Africans were the first to perform C-Sections: https://www.africanexponent.com/post/9780-c-sections-were-invented-in-africa-long-before-they-were-standardized-across-the-world   Lost Libraries of Timbuktu: http://www.understandingslavery.com/index.php-option=com_content&view=article&id=378&Itemid=233.html   Book Recommendation: Why I'm no Longer Talking to White People About Race, by Reni Eddo-Lodge   If you liked this episode please share it with 5 friends.

The topic of Racism in Africa is quite heavy. However, we cannot keep sticking our heads in sand and pretending that it does not exist on the continent. My obvious choice of who to brave this topic with was Muma Sinkala and she did not disappoint. It was such a rich discussion. Albeit sometimes uncomfortable but that is okay.  Our conversation covered colonialism, African dependency on the white saviours and Africans being the gatekeepers.   "Racism is subtle in Africa" "African countries have systems that continue to perpetuate racism" "Every African is traumatised by racism, we just don't recognise it" "For us to get over colonialism we must forgive ourselves and then our ancestors" "Unlearning is required"   This is part 1 of this conversation. Please come back next week to catch the end of this topic.   Book Recommendation: Why I'm no Longer Talking to White People About Race, by Reni Eddo-Lodge   If you liked this episode please share it with 5 friends.

In this two-part episode, I chat to my friend, fellow podcaster and upcoming author Dami Edun about the subtle forms of racism that still exist in the UK today and how we all have a long way to go in breaking down and understanding racist behaviour. We talk about the guilt that a lot of us will have faced in the last few months and how we can sit with that uncomfortable feeling and accept it to allow us to be better allies. It's okay to not get it right all of the time and regardless of how you choose to take a stand, learning to acknowledge mistakes and listening to those who have lived experiences can help in driving change and bringing communities closer together.

This week, Beki and Maria catch up on a book that Maria is currently reading called ‘Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race' by Reni Eddo-Lodge. In this episode, we discuss racism in the UK, using some of Reni's arguments for what she calls ‘the fear of a Black planet and Black Britain'. Reni discusses the discourse of a nation where some people are spending their time yearning for a nostalgic Britain... That never was. From Brexit to curry houses, from colonialism to Harry Potter, racism is alive and well in the UK, and we're here to talk about it. Unfortunately.

A best-seller following publication in 2017, Eddo-Lodge's polemic lit up a whole conversation about race in Britain, prompting millions to think for the first time about the concepts of systemic racism and white privilege in relation to the UK. The conversation, if that's the word for what often feels like a perilous obstacle course at best and an antagonistic Manichean battle to the death at worst, continues with renewed intensity following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. Eddo-Lodge's book has been as controversial and it has been influential. Join Zoe and Tom as they roll up their sleeves and wade into the debate of our times.

Julia talks to British writer Reni Eddo-Lodge. Author of the award-winning book ‘Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race', Reni discusses the importance of intersectionality, how we move beyond a ‘white feminism' which prioritises certain women's voices above others, and why she's calling for liberation rather than equality.

Following the global movement of outrage, heartbreak and ‘Black Lives Matter' protests after the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Alan, Greg and Scott talk about what they're learning about systemic racism, justice and what it means to be allies to those who are victims of oppression. This episode is called ‘The First Of Many Conversations' because we're conscious that three white men talking about race is nobody's ideal and that, though we want to speak up rather than be silent, we're committed to using our (small) platform to amplify those whose voices the world needs right now. We hope this will be the first of many such conversations that will include people of colour and others from marginalised groups. As we mention in the show, you may find it more helpful to listen to our interview with author and activist Lisa Sharon Harper in Episode 167 which you can find here.Resources mentioned in the show: ‘Redemption: The John M.

In the past two weeks, there has been only one topic on the agenda, and one important question on my mind: Racism - and how can we - as white people - listen, learn, and do better? In this episode, I explain why I chose not to take part in #BlackoutTuesday and why I have not been silent on what some may see as a difficult or divisive issue. Not because I'm trying to "show" how anti-racist I am. That's performative and unhelpful. But because I truly believe in the power of meditation as a tool to offer insight into our lives and minds, even when it's hard, or uncomfortable. I truly believe that meditation has a serious role to play in helping us all to get quiet, to get still, to listen, to learn, and to sit with the discomfort that many of us (white people) are feeling this week, about our role and accidental complicity in what is still an inherently racist society. Meditation is, at its core, a practice in getting still, getting quiet, in recognising our own biases and prejudices, our flaws and weaknesses - as well as our strengths and using our compassion, yes - and using that practice to retrain and rewire the brain, so we can identify those unhelpful mental patterns, and choose a better, more helpful, happier, compassionate path. This is exactly what we, as white people, need to do now. That's why, in this episode, I also share some of the best resources I have found to start doing the work, listening, and learning. I also share my Anti-Racism Values and how I am committing to continue to doing this work long after the news cycle has moved on. ------------ Resources + Show Notes Me and White Supremacy by Layla F.

The talented Ashley Belal Chin rose to fame in 1999 BBC film Storm Damage and has enjoyed success as an actor, screen-writer, rapper and spoken word poet. Having thought happiness was found in success and material possessions he realised, after converting to Islam in 2002, where it was really to be found. We speak about his upbringing on a council estate in London where he spent his youth mixed up in gang culture, how he won his first acting role and how he found peace in his faith. Ashley shares some profound thoughts about inner peace, and how many of us are looking for happiness in the wrong places. Following the tragic homicide of George Floyd along with many others due to racism this felt particularly pertinent to release this week. I believe we need to be actively anti-racist and educate ourselves about the systemic racism that exists within our country. There are many resources out there - I can recommend Reni Eddo-Lodge's book 'Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race' as a great place to start. 

This week, as the Black Lives Matter protests against racism and police violence following the death of George Floyd while in police custody continue across America and the world, our hosts are recognising their white privilege and trying to educate themselves, and sharing resources for anyone else seeking to do so - we've linked to petitions and funds to donate to below, and shared a few of the books we've mentioned. Plus, Frankie's admitting that part of her doesn't want to leave lockdown, and Charlie's sharing the paperback sex scenes that were seminal for her school friends (one name: Ralph). And we share our recommendations for the week - all over a bottle of organic Pura Sicilia Purato Rosé.

This week is our 50th Episode! This week we have our usual storm watch with Liv half hoping we get to storm Olivia and the usual Telly Talk. Highlights include: Booksmart, The Trial of Christine Keeler and both of us have some odd discoveries, from the Icelandic Eurovision entry to Julian Simmons introducing Coronation Street back in 1998. Our main topic this week is books, we go through everything we have been reading (and not finishing it Liv's case) in the last 6 months. We for the first time (definitely not the last) get to hear from you, our lovely listeners and find out what you have been reading too.

Just to let you know, we briefly talk about suicide (15:35) and racism in this episode (31:44). This week we have a long catch up, firstly starting with the weather because would we be British if we didn't? In Telly Talk it's the penultimate of Liv's ‘Love Island Minute' - Liv also discusses Mamma Mia 2, Disney's Coco and Christopher Robin. Meanwhile Charlotte's been watching Anthony Bourdain's back catalogue, continuing with Dietland, and is now Ladygaga's number fan after watching her documentary Five Foot Two. Alongside TV, we discuss the book ‘Why I am No Longer Talking to White People About Race' by Reni Eddo-Lodge. In shopping we learn what dream Gucci item Liv is lusting over, and Charlotte's new favourite cheese (you really get it all on this podcast). Alongside this we discuss visiting Sheffield, going pescatarian for a week and a few of our favourite new apps.
