On this episode of The R.A.G.E Podcast, host Micaela Parker and guest Dr. Marinka Swift, the Associate Director of IRISE, talk about her work, background, and her research around linguistics and belonging. Through dialogue, they discuss the historic exclusionary practices used within higher education and the importance of cultivating scholars dedicated to resistance in academia. By connecting through lived experiences, Micaela and Dr. Swift dive deeper into who Dr. Swift is and the importance of protecting and advocating for BIPOC, underserved, and other marginalized students on campuses like DU.
