S06E10: Beyond the Binary: Ensuring Safety and Inclusion for Trans and Queer Students on Campus
The episode will focus on the topic of trans and queer safety on college campuses, shedding light on the issues of discrimination and violence faced by these students. According to a report by Human Rights Watch, titled "Walking Through the Hailstorm: Discrimination Against LGBT Youth in US Schools," LGBTQ students face significant challenges in school environments, including harassment, bullying, and violence. The report notes that 85% of LGBTQ students have experienced verbal harassment, 58% have experienced physical harassment, and 28% have experienced physical assault. Moreover, LGBTQ students are also more likely to experience exclusion and isolation from their peers and teachers.
The podcast will delve into the efforts to create safe and inclusive environments for all students, with a particular focus on the initiatives and policies that colleges can implement to address these issues. This could include the creation of LGBTQ resource centers, the adoption of inclusive policies and practices, and the training of staff and faculty on LGBTQ issues. The discussion will also touch on the importance of allyship and support from the broader campus community in fostering a safe and inclusive environment for trans and queer students. -

S06EP08: Women's History Month: Gender Pay Gap
Did you know that in the United States, women earn only 82 cents for every dollar earned by men? And the pay gap is even wider for women of color, with Black women earning only 63 cents and Latinas earning just 55 cents for every dollar earned by white, non-Hispanic men.
But it's not just statistics that show the reality of the pay gap. In 2021, the U.S. women's national soccer team sued the U.S. Soccer Federation for gender discrimination, citing pay disparities and other unequal treatment. This high-profile case brought the issue of gender pay discrimination to the forefront of public discussion.
In this episode, we'll be examining how race/ethnicity, age, disabilities, and other factors impact the pay gap, and what steps we can take to close it. Don't miss this important and timely discussion on gender pay discrimination.
