On this fourth and final episode we hear from Professor Anamik Saha (Leeds) on the crisis of diversity. Anamik’s talk imagines how media can proactively challenge racism in society, and how a radical reimagining of diversity can contribute to this urgent task.
Beyond Media Diversity is a series of four episodes from the Media Futures Hub which takes a critical look at diversity debates in the media, examining how these are limiting (and limited), what decolonial and anti-colonial alternatives could look like, and how we might divest from the diversity paradigm.
The series was recorded at the Beyond Media Diversity Symposium at the University of New South Wales in June 2024, hosted by the Media Futures Hub at the School of the Arts and Media. This podcast mini-series is produced by Mitchell Price, Tanja Dreher, and Sukhmani Khorana.
