In this episode, Tiye takes a deep dive into the concept of intersectionality of social identities.
In this episode, Tiye introduces the concept of microderailment and the common tactics that are used to stop DEI work in its tracks. If you'd like to learn more about some of the tactics Tiye talks about in this episode, check out the work of Tema Okun: https://www.whitesupremacyculture.info/characteristics.html
In this episode, Tiye talks about the concept of emotional labor and how it routinely comes up in DEI work.
In this episode, Tiye talks about her original dialogue framework known as CHE (Curiosity, Humility, and Empathy) and how it can be used to engage in difficult DEI conversations.
In this episode, Tiye explains the difference between intent vs. impact and why this concept is so important in doing substantive DEI work.
In this episode, Tiye breaks down the three core questions that 'diversity', 'equity', and 'inclusion' ask us to consider.
In this episode, Tiye explains the concept of societal privilege as it relates to DEI work.

In this episode, Tiye outlines the differences between dialogue and debate and why dialogue is so important to effective DEI work.
In this episode, Tiye uses the power of storytelling to illuminate how our history plays a significant role in why diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts are still necessary for historically marginalized people.
In this episode, Tiye gives her point of view on what social justice is and why we should care about this work.
Everyday we make choices, both big and small, that impact our future. In this final episode of the season, we take a moment to examine what choices we can make that champion racial equity and liberation for us all.
Those who are against anti-racism education will often say that the concept of equality has been abandoned for the ideology of equity. What's the difference between equality and equity...and why are both of these necessary to achieve true racial liberation?
Often times, people who oppose CRT will equate the theoretical framework with Marxism, Communism, etc. This framing is not an accident, and it's a tactic that's been used before in the United States to quell those who are trying to move the needle toward social justice.
If we're going to deal with those who oppose CRT/anti-racism education head on, we need to take a deep dive into the 'why' behind the 'what'. In other words, why are people so against anti-racism education being taught in our schools and what does that mean for us who champion racial liberation?
How is scarcity connected with the social construct of race? This episode gives a brief overview of how these concepts are linked and why the scarcity mindset lends itself to perpetuating the racial divide in the United States.
The discourse around CRT has focused a great deal on anti-racism education in the K-12 education system. This first episode uses the power of storytelling to give a real world example of how a lack of cultural competency can lead to real world harm for historically marginalized youth.
Welcome to Season 2 of the Good Intent Good Impact podcast. This podcast focuses on issues of racial equity in the United States and season two is dedicated to the discourse on Critical Race Theory (CRT). Please note: I use the terms anti-racism education and CRT interchangeably throughout this podcast only because it’s what people understand as it relates to the unfolding public discourse. It’s critical to understand these are NOT the same thing, and should not be construed as such.
In this final episode of the season, we look at the durable and mutating aspect of the web of oppression and how it can be used to uphold white supremacy
As they say, if you don’t understand your history you are doomed to repeat it. To combat racial inequity and secure liberation we must be honest about our stories from the past and how they directly link our modern day lived experiences.
We all have social identities in which we have privilege and which we don’t. It’s important to understand what this means for ourselves and in relation to each other if we’re going to stop the oppression olympics and do the substantive work of ensuring racial liberation.
If we’re going to secure liberation for Black and Brown people, we’re going to have to be honest about how White culture and White supremacy show up in us. In this episode, we talk about how our cycles of socialization lead us to internalize oppressive ways of being and how the cycle of liberation can help us break those patterns.
What is normal? Who defines it? Who does it unintentionally marginalize? This week on Good Intent Good Impact, we talk about how white cultural norms are weaponized to keep BIPOC individuals from being their authentic selves, specifically in the workplace.
We live in a world where White norms are the standard and everyone else can either acquiesce or face the consequences. In this fourth episode, we discuss the hierarchical aspect of the web of oppression, how it places White people above people of color, and what we can do to combat it.
Race is a social construct that we use to label and stereotype people in our society. Equity demands that we recognize how these categories negatively impact marginalized people and uphold systems of White supremacy.
In part 2 of this 9 part series, we explore the pervasive aspect of the Web of Oppression. Racism is everywhere and for Black and Brown people we are constantly watching our backs and waiting for the other shoe to drop. Knowing that interpersonal and systemic racism can literally be the difference between life and death is a heavy burden to carry. If we’re going to dismantle white supremacy, we need to understand its pervasiveness and how it operates in our society.
In this first part of the nine part series, we focus on the restrictive aspect of the web of oppression and how it can keep people from valuable resources.
During Summer 2021, I will be featuring a 9-part series focused on the different aspects of the web of oppression. We will discuss each aspect with real world examples to bring these concepts to life in a useful and substantive way.
When facilitating dialogue, most people are so focused on the content, that they forget the importance of process. In this episode, I share my easy 3-step method for engaging in authentic and brave dialogue around race.
In this episode, we explore the difference between intent and impact, and why it’s important to do equity work with an impact based approach.
In this episode, learn the three questions that each of these concepts asks and how they work together to create equitable environments.
In this episode, we explore the difference between fault and responsibility as it relates to White people doing the work of equity and inclusion.
