Ep. 8 - Sporting Blackness Across the Globe: Coming into your own Hear To Stay

To say that Noroh Dakim has accomplished a lot is a gross understatement. She is a medical student at the University of Toronto and is one of the cofounders of the Newcomer Mentorship Program at UofT among other things. Her passion for equity and inclusion is unmatched and stems from her lived experience, and throughout our conversation this episode, she shares what it's like coming into her Blackness as someone who immigrated to Canada. Being Black isn't about adhering to a specific set of characteristics, it's about making sure you live as truly as you possibly can. It's about having pride in who you are and learning to live comfortably in your own skin, however it is you choose to do so.
