What is a Visible Woman?
Manage episode 217198183 series 2446277
Welcome to the (In)Visible Women Podcast, where we put issues related to diversity, inclusion, and appearance in the spotlight and examine how they impact the lives of women of color. In this introductory segment, we introduce ourselves and talk about our personal connections to this topic. As women of color, we both have struggled with being invisible, particularly when it comes to beauty standards. We are judged by what we look like, whether consciously or unconsciously. The criteria are often everything that we are not. (In)Visible Women Podcast challenges us to acknowledge our visibility and lean into, name and welcome our visible differences. Our podcast acknowledges that while women of color are participants in every aspect of American culture, there is still the underlying message that our hair, our skin tone, our body shape, are not important enough to be affirmed in pop culture, at work, or in school. Our podcast is intended to provide a space for dialogue, support, and solutions. It is for you no matter what sector you work in, whether you are still in school or an entrepreneur, no matter what dimension of difference you bring to the world, or what your identity intersections are. We want to send a clear message out to everyone this work touches, which is simply you are ENOUGH.
Original Music: Richard D'Abreu Jr.
