The goal is to bridge the gap between activism and science by educating underprivileged communities and everyday people. The topics Decolonizing Science seeks to shed light on are environmental racism, health disparities and discrimination in the medical and research fields. We need to deconstruct colonial ideologies that have dictated and defined our understanding of science and medicine. d44ae026-b24d-422f-b83a-7e92a665435b episodic no Decolonizing Science podcasts60+45efa854@anchor.fm https://feeds.redcircle.com/d44ae026-b24d-422f-b83a-7e92a665435b false full Breathe for Kaloni Breathe for Kaloni 5 1 Decolonizing Science <p>Breathe for Kaloni!
