This radio series interviews researchers and scientists of color from a variety of disciplines about the importance of their work and how systems of inequity have impacted their fields through a lens of social and environmental justice, especially considering the racial justice movement happening today. This series is by Hudson Mohawk Magazine Producer Erin Blanding, a Benjamin N. Duke scholar at Duke University from Indian Trail, NC.
As a summer 2020 intern for The Sanctuary, Erin produced a podcast series called “People’s Science” with Kathy High, Professor of Arts at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and project coordinator of NATURE Lab. The goal of Erin’s bucket is to interview a wide variety of scientists and researchers of color, ranging from experts in education to architectural scientists about the importance of their work. Another important goal of People’s Science is to examine how systems of inequity have impacted their fields through a lens of social and environmental justice, especially considering the racial justice movement happening today.
