Episode 4: The Importance of BIPOC Spaces

This week on Taking Up Space, Reena, Rehana, and Crystal discuss ways to navigate imposter syndrome as racialized people in the short term and long term. We also begin a discussion around claiming BIPOC spaces and how that relates to imposter syndrome. We reference an article by the eloquent Kelsey Blackwell, “Why People of Colour Need Spaces Without White People” as she discusses ways to heal among our communities and come back to our roots. As always, we hope you enjoy!
