Different People :: S02E01

The Different People podcast addresses diversity, equity &amp; inclusion from a psychological perspective. It explores the often difficult and avoided topics we can be too anxious to discuss but are necessary to shift thinking, emotion and behaviour, when it comes to bias, marginalization and racism. 

Through honest and publicly unspoken conversations with guests, Dr. Abdulrehman addresses bridge-building and empathy necessary for personal, community, organizational change and better engagement with different people.
