She will address putting Indigenous demands first, owning institutional racism, building relationships with diverse communities, changing hiring practices to call to diverse candidates, addressing systemic exclusion and evaluation criteria, and hiring for critical mass. She concludes with an extensive Q&A on how your institution and/or firm might take these six steps as well.
