Canadian two-time Olympic Gold Medalist Donovan Bailey who was once hailed as the fastest man in the world said, in an interview with CTV news in 2020: "in Canada, it's racism with a smile" alluding to how racial inequity is masked by Canada's reputation of being the nicest people in the world.
In Episode 170, Ben sits down with behavior analyst Danni Reid, his guest from the first episode of the Behaviour Speak Podcast who in 2020 shared her experience of being the only Black behavior analyst in British Columbia. Danni is joined by two other Black behavior analysts, Juliet Musonge and Michelle Upshaw who also thought they were the only Black behavior analysts in BC. Danni, Juliet, and Mish reflect on their experiences with racial inequality in Canada and how things have changed (and haven't changed) over the past four years.
Editors Note: Michelle Upshaw's vocal track has a crackling sound for about 8 minutes at around the 25 minute mark that I was unable to isolate but please listen to what she has to say and enjoy the conversation

In Episode 168, Ben chats with Dr. Trina Spencer, the first female Director of the Juniper Garden's Children Centre, a part of the KU Life Span Institute, originally founded in the mid-1960s when citizens of Northeast Kansas City, Kansas joined with faculty from the University of Kansas to address concerns about the development and education of children in their low-income, inner-city community. Since its inception, Juniper Gardens has developed and validated meaningful solutions to major community concerns identified by those directly affected - the community residents themselves. The center also provides opportunities for KU faculty and students to learn from the wisdom and life experiences of families from diverse backgrounds.
In this conversation, Dr. Spencer bares her soul as she shares her journey of living a sheltered life in a conservative religious family, eventually raising a wonderful transgendered child, finding herself in Africa, and the many life lessons she had along the way.

The original purpose of "Me Too" as used by Tarana Burke in 2006 was to empower women through empathy, especially young and vulnerable women. In October 2017, American actress, Alyssa Milano encouraged using the phrase as a hashtag to help reveal the extent of problems with sexual harassment and assault by showing how many people have experienced these events themselves. It therefore encourages women to speak up about their abuses, knowing that they are not alone. The movement spread beyond Hollywood calling out perpetrators in the music industry, sciences, academia, politics and even students in K-12 schools. So-called "whisper networks" have also formed where private lists of "people to avoid "are shared unofficially in nearly every major institution or industry where sexual harassment is common due to power imbalances, including government, media, news, and academia. These lists have the stated purpose of warning other workers in the industry and are shared from person to person, on forums, in private social media groups, and via spreadsheets.
(From: Wikipedia contributors. (2024, June 27). MeToo movement. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Retrieved 22:41, June 28, 2024, from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MeToo_movement&oldid=1231354954)
One such list has been rumored to exist in the field of applied behavior analysis warning conference attendees and employees of people to avoid or risk exposure to predatory behavior.
In this episode, we dig into the experiences of behavior analysts, the availability and usefulness of reporting procedures, and behaviors we can engage in to protect others from perpetrators.
