Archive Episode - Selam Debs

This week on the podcast, we are re-sharing an episode from October 2020 in which Brenda, a then student-intern at DCO, interviewed Selam Debs about racism, anti-racism, and mental health. Selam identifies as a Black Ethiopian queer antiracism educator, an anti-oppression coach, a social justice advocate, a student in dismantling anti-Black racism, an accomplice in dismantling anti-Indigenous racism, xenophobia, and Islamophobia, and an advocate in Intersectional and 2SLGBTQ+ rights.
