Just Sustainability, Episode 2B: Nina Ortiz – Rethinking scholarly discourse

In the second half of the conversation that I had with anthropologist Dr. Nina Ortiz, Nina and I talked about a number of topics.

We also spoke about the conventions of higher education, how those conventions are laden with cultural biases, and how to begin to expand scholarly discourse beyond those biases.
