Today on RNT Fitness Radio I’m joined by a special guest,
Bilal Khan, who’s come back on the show after first appearing on
episode 113 to talk all about some of the events happening in the
world today. The big question we tackle is if black lives seem to
matter today, will they matter to organisations, people and
government tomorrow? As a diversity and inclusion expert, he says
his job shouldn’t even exist in this world. Through the episode we
talk about whether there’s a solution, what the accountability
needs to be, protesting during covid, why he didn’t post a black
square, and how to start tackling the deep rooted racism and
stereotyping in society. This is an important conversation that I
urge everyone to listen to right to the end, and then share it with
someone who needs to hear it too.
‘’So a lot of people that started with the black
square, amazing, but what are you doing next?’’
