A Conversation about Diversity & Inclusion with Comcast/Universal diversity activist Laarni DacanayDescription
The world is enriched by the diversity represented through the collaboration and connection between people of different races and cultures. The media should also be a reflection of that, of what we see in our world on a daily basis. My guest today is Laarni Dacanay who I also serve with as members of the PBS Southern Callifornia Asian Pacific Islander Community council to help promote diversity and inclusion within PBS Socal’s Programming. We talk about our own individual paths that led us to be activists who are passionate about promoting diversity in our culture and helping to be change agents in the entertainment industry so that it is a true reflection of our world and our unique stories. Join us for this fun and fascinating conversation about inspired us to continuing doing work to make a difference in our communities, taking risks, the state of affairs for Asian Pacific Islanders in entertainment, and living life with passion and purpose which includes being activists in the entertainment and Asian Pacific Islander Community. (Note: In the episode, Panney is referenced as attending Temple, but she actually attended Tufts Univ.)
