Episode Six (Part 2): Boards And Black Tokenism - What It Really Means To Belong
Description
Welcome to Part 2 of Boards And Black Tokenism - What It Really Means To Belong. In Part 1, our guests and I tell the jarring story of how we were recruited to a board as token Black members, and quickly discovered that as board members, we were not, and would never be, treated as equals.
Here in Part 2 we specify the concrete actions that people and organisations should take to deal with, and avoid, Black tokenism.
Continue the conversation with Mide Akerewusi, Nneka Allen, CFRE, COC, PCC, Founder of The Empathy Agency and Múthoní Karíukí HBSc, MPNL, CFRE, as we explore the profound story shared in Us and Them.
In this episode we discuss the important learning points for organizations to navigate board diversification while also upholding the value and dignity of all involved.
