47. How Bias Is Shaping Our World Featuring Elizabeth Lang
What does racial equity truly look like in 2024, and are we moving closer to or further from that vision?
In this episode of Represented, I sit down with Elizabeth Lang, the Founding CEO of Diversity Focus, a consultancy driving change in workplace culture, diversity, equity, and inclusion. Elizabeth's journey from community development to speaking on global stages, including the United Nations in Geneva, is nothing short of inspiring.
This conversation dives into the pressing issues of racial and gender equity in 2024, the role of silence in the face of racism, and the innovative solutions that are breaking barriers, like Mane Caps, which make water sports accessible for individuals with voluminous hair. We also discuss her upcoming book, Wired for Bias, an eye-opening look at how machine learning systems perpetuate systemic inequality and what we can do about it.
If you're passionate about dismantling barriers to equity, understanding the intersection of race, gender, and technology, or simply want to hear from someone shaping the future of inclusion, this episode is for you.
