Show Notes

The term ‘global majority’, a collective term for non-white people, and people and groups who don't experience white privilege. It aims to the ‘flip the script’ on power as something that only white people can hold and help provide a sense of empowerment and belonging to those who are often excluded based on appearance, particularly skin colour. In this episode, guests Julie Ngwabi and Nancy Jeffrey share their personal stories with podcast host Rosie and explore cultural identity, the damaging impact of assumptions and biases, and the importance of courageous conversations in being more inclusive.
