Welcome to Educating for Intercultural Understanding & Anti-Racism

It’s 2024, and after a long pandemic break, we’re gearing up for an exciting relaunch in 2025!

We invite you to join us on this journey by catching up with our latest content and revisiting past episodes in this thought-provoking series. In the very first episode, Dr. Joyce Pittman introduces "Educating for Intercultural Understanding and Anti-Racism", a powerful podcast series that dives deep into the pressing issues brought to the forefront by the pandemic.

This 10-part series tackles the social, educational, and economic challenges we now face on a global scale. Beyond the devastating loss of life due to the pandemic, war, and ongoing conflicts, we’ll be addressing the rise in racially motivated violence, particularly against people of color—violations of civil and human rights that demand urgent attention and cultural humility.

Developing and improving peaceful relations with other cultures and races will require we respect and honor those laws, practices and traditions that help us value their contributions and presence in the world.  This is a primary mission and vision of Black History Month and other cultural celebrations by different groups around the world. 

Intercultural and racial relations are facing an unprecedented crisis in worldwide as we face a resurgence of problems surrounding racism and intercultural disconnects with each other as human beings, which did not happen without years of warning. What we did not predict is that given the advances in recognizing growing diversity in education, research, science, technology and human development that we would see such cruelty in our society.

This situation is causing many persons to fear what will come next during this uncertain time of intercultural and racial unrest, especially in the United States of America. However, America is not alone in experiencing this problem.
