Interview: Doctora Nicole Cabrera Salazar

"In the colonial white supremacist system, there is no community. There's only power, but there's no community. But that doesn't mean that we have to abide by that model. We can create a new model. So in a way, it's exciting. But it's also terrifying. Because what does that look like without a blueprint"

Meet Doctora Nicole Cabrera Salazar (She/They/Ella), astrophysicist turned social impact entrepreneur, and founder & CEO of Movement Consulting, a company dedicated to transforming academic environments into radically nourishing spaces for marginalized people by providing virtual courses, workshops, and expert advice.

In this special interview episode of Power Pivot, join Leela and Dra. Nicole in a conversation about community, loneliness, Zapatistas, toxic academic environments, and reclaiming power from colonialist structures and using it for the good of our communities.
