Identity in the Workplace with Nadia Butt
Content Warning: this episode contains references to discrimination, xenophobia, and Islamophobia. Nadia Butt grew up in a predominantly white community. Born to Pakistani immigrants near Boston, growing up as someone often perceived as "different" shaped her perception of identity and community. She's faced challenges like navigating Islamophobia after 9/11, which greatly influenced her mission as an adult. Nadia co-hosts the Inclusive Collective Podcast. As a consultant focused on supporting marginalized communities, her work aids companies in integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion (or DEI) into their organizations. In this revealing conversation, Nadia shares personal stories of racial bias, gender, and race disparities she's encountered in the workplace, such as unequal pay. She guides us through the complexities of DEI work, highlighting the three core values which guide her work: learning, community, and identity. As you'll quickly realize, her work reflects one key learning: that acknowledging our differences doesn't have to divide us but can bring us closer together, fostering a more inclusive and equitable environment.
