In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

SOSOADAE : FM

When I was a child, thought God had made me the lowest possible form of human being, to be both Black and female. I felt this way because of the stories I was told. SOSOADAE : FM is a show about how fiction forms the world, through the lens of Black culture and fiction literacy to help readers/writers imagine and craft a more empathetic, more just, and more perfect humanity (through more perfect stories). **To become a partner or sponsor, send a n email to nefertiti@sosoadae.com.

A candid minute with Toronto mayoral candidate Saron Gebresellassi at the National Association of Black Journalists Convention 2018. This October, Saron Gebresellassi could become Toronto's first Black mayor defeating a handful of neo-nazi and alt-right opponents in the process and uniting Toronto's largest voting bloc: visible minorities of primarily Asian and African descent, but there is another issue that Gebresellassi wants to bring immediate attention to: A growing immigration crisis along the Canada-US border.
