Ever since I decided to go down the academic route in Philosophy, I realized that the subject was polluted with Caucasian men.. hardly any women or even women of color as lecturers. I was blessed to have a WOC Philosophy lecturer during my time in Undergrad. She gave me the drive and inspiration to decide to go down this route, because let's face it: representation matters. Sadly this is not the reality for a lot of women who are planning to go into Academia roles in Philosophy or any other male-dominated subjects. If I can inspire a generation of not only female academics, but black academics also, then even research in academia will be more balanced race&gender wise. Creating a driving force even in the UK's University curriculum to have more recognition of POC academic research. Around 70% of Academic Philosophers in the UK Universities are men, let that sink in.. In essence this radio show is a discussion about the lack of female representation in Philosophy. 
In essence this radio show is a discussion about the lack of female representation in Philosophy. We discuss 3 barriers that women in Philosophy face: implicit bias, stereotyping and sexual harassment.
