In this episode of the podcast our host Kyra Araneta is joined by Professor Heidi Safia Mirza, an accomplished academic, activist and feminist writer with a wealth of knowledge and experience in addressing complex issues related to race, ethnicity, and inequality in the context of higher education. In this interview, Heidi discusses her upbringing and journey through academia, as well as the key influences that have shaped her career. Focusing on the research process behind the “Race and Ethnicity” report which she co-authored for the Institute for Fiscal Studies, Heidi reflects on the historical context and the intersectional approach used to examine ethnic inequalities in the UK. Finally, when contemplating the challenges of upholding the authenticity of social justice work within the academic space, Heidi provides valuable guidance for embracing and surmounting these hurdles.
