  • Sumário

  • Becoming aware of race and the challenges involved can be an incredibly difficult process, and this is even truer in countries where inequality is deeply ingrained.

    - Jack’s background and the experiences that led him to where he is today.

    - Becoming aware of his race in the cultural context of South Africa.

    - Jack’s experience having different names and deciding which one to use professionally.

    - Some of the challenges Jack has faced in his career.

    - The importance of getting proximate and learning about differences to overcome false narratives around people of color.

    - What are some of the barriers to creating a more inclusive society where everyone can be their most authentic selves?

    - Jack’s experience working and promoting DEI across three continents.
