Anybody can do the work of breaking down practices, policies, behaviors, and norms which serve to keep another person or group controlled, marginalized, harmed, and de-humanized. ⁠

Oppression occurs at the collective level and at the individual level.

On today's podcast, I'm going to talk about what the f*ck does it really meant to "dismantle systems of oppression" because sometimes it may sound more complex than it really is.

Anybody can dismantle systems of oppression- especially the one that show up in our day to day lives.
I'm sharing 4 steps that will help you to identify the oppressive system- and break it down into pieces!

Listen to today's episode to get insights on the following:
Why it's important to trust your instincts when identifying oppressive systems in your life
How to anticipate tactics that may be used against you by those benefiting from oppression
Some of the common ways oppression shows up in our everyday lives

This is an important topic we are discussing today.
