S1: Ep 5 The Racial Microaggressions We Face at University Part 2
26:12
 

This raw conversation with two young black women who discuss the microaggressions and blatant racism they face as students at university continues (following part 1).

 

It comes with a trigger warning, as one student shares a particularly shocking incident she faced during freshers' week.

 

We implore all university staff, lecturers and especially leaders to tune in and learn as they share their thoughts on the changes needed.

 

If you, as a student, find resonance with the experiences discussed in this episode, remember that you're not alone. Reach out to any of the following organisations, dedicated to providing the support and understanding you deserve.
