Decolonizing Science

Decolonizing Science is a grassroots organization and podcast run entirely by a black scientist currently obtaining their PhD in the field of biological sciences. The goal is to bridge the gap between activism and science by educating underprivileged communities and everyday people. The topics Decolonizing Science seeks to shed light on are environmental racism, health disparities and discrimination in the medical and research fields. We need to deconstruct colonial ideologies that have dictated and defined our understanding of science and medicine.

The host, Ashley, really knows her info to begin with, but also does a really great job facilitating criticism of popular views on science and medicine. The guests are amazing too! Everyone involved in this podcast is doing super critical work in making this info accessible.

I think this show is phenomenal. Ashley chooses guests whose voices you will not hear anywhere else, and who speak from personal experience about issues of medical and research-based racism and especially anti-Blackness. Her work makes this unlike anything else on the air. Definitely worth your time.
