In this thought-provoking episode of A Black Executive Perspective Podcast, hosts Tony Tidbit and Chris P. Reed challenge the status quo with a candid conversation on race, identity, and corporate America. Joining the discussion is Robert Franklin II, a champion of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), who unpacks the generational clash in how we confront racism and discrimination in professional spaces.
Are younger generations pushing for inclusivity in ways that older generations resist? Are laws like the CROWN Act enough to dismantle systemic bias, or are they just scratching the surface? Franklin brings his expertise as a Black educator and DEI practitioner to explore personal stories, shifting societal norms, and the urgent need for intergenerational collaboration in the fight for meaningful change.
This episode dissects the "dimensions of difference" and uncovers whether today’s diversity efforts are truly effective—or just performative. Are we moving forward together, or is progress being lost in translation?
