Episode 86: Recruiting for Mission: How HBCUs Compete for Talent
Historically Black Colleges and Universities have long been essential to producing Black scholars and leaders yet they continue to face an uneven playing field when it comes to recruiting and keeping faculty. Today, HBCUs often hire professors trained at large research universities, while their own graduates are less likely to land those same kinds of positions. This gap raises real questions about fairness, opportunity, and what it takes for HBCUs to grow and thrive in a system that wasn't always designed with them in mind. In this episode, we discuss findings from The Pipeline Paradox, a national study of faculty hiring and placement at research-intensive HBCUs. The research reveals a striking pattern in how academic careers are shaped and who gets to move up. The conversation explores why these patterns matter and what leaders and policymakers can do to change them. While this research focuses specifically on HBCUs, its implications reach across higher education. When institutions that serve the most underrepresented communities are strengthened, the entire academic ecosystem benefits. Listen for data-driven insights on faculty hiring, honest conversations about structural barriers in academia, and practical steps that institutional leaders and policymakers can take to build stronger, more equitable faculty pipelines now and in the years ahead.

Episode 85: The Illusion of Neutrality
The mental health system is still falling short for many people. Despite years of diversity efforts, too many communities of color continue to be underserved, misunderstood, and overlooked. Outdated assumptions about what "normal" or "objective" care looks like have gone unchallenged for too long and the gap between what institutions promise and what people actually experience has never been clearer. In this episode, we spoke with Norman H. Kim about his recent anthology, Anti Blackness and the Stories of Authentic Allies (Oxford University Press, 2024), which examines how the myth of clinical "neutrality" and so-called color-blind practice can reinforce anti-Blackness and other structural inequities in mental health. As the inaugural DEI Officer at Columbia University's Center for Practice Innovations, Kim brings together research and lived experience to illuminate what liberation-informed, culturally responsive care looks like in real clinical and institutional settings. Listen for a candid examination of what authentic allyship looks like in practice, tools for shifting clinical language and decision-making toward justice-rooted approaches.
