This episode features a conversation with Kathy Lopes. Kathy Lopes is a Professor at Simmons University School of Social Work, 1st Vice President of the Association of Massachusetts School Equity Leaders and author of the book “Change the Narrative: How to Foster an Antiracist culture in your school”. We talked about what equity and antiracism look like in action, Kathy’s journey to becoming a champion of justice and how history is on the side of change makers. I hope you enjoy it.

The conversation delves into the importance of news reporting and narratives that focus on solutions rather than problems. It also explores the power of uplifting the assets to be found in marginalized communities.
