In Episode 106, Ben chats with Dr. Mari Cerda about her experiences across multiple intersecting identities. They delve into the history of Mesoamerica, the lasting effects of colonization on the field of behavior analysis, the loneliness of possibly being the only Mestiza and Autistic behavior analyst in the entire field and her work with both her non-profit institute helping marginalized individuals get into the field of behavior analysis and her not-for-profit clinic which boasts an employee group consisting of 90% neurodiverse individuals.

Episode 98 is an interview with Dr. Evan Auguste, an Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Massachusetts Boston and a pre-licensed clinical psychologist at Ma’at Psychological Services. We delved into the concept of Black Liberation psychology, a crucial field aimed at addressing the mental health repercussions of structural anti-Blackness. Dr. Auguste's work focuses on developing community-based health interventions, like the Sawubona Healing Circles, that promote healing through an African-centered framework.  We also dive into the history and initiatives of the Association for Black Psychologists.

Episode 95 features a conversation with Claire Zuch, a graduate student in Dr. Jordan Bellisle's HUB lab whose work has been focused on the analysis of ableism and stigma against Autistic folks.  Relational Density Theory is a complex and fascinating concept and Claire does a wonderful job of explaining RDT to a novice like myself.  Claire notes that RDT is often easier to explain with a visual of something known as a geospace (see below).  Claire discusses her plans to continue this research in her doctoral program with Dr. Mark Dixon and the importance of compensating Autistic participants for their labour.

Experiences of burnout in the field of behaviour analysis are being reported more and more and with that many resources on how to alleviate these symptoms in terms of self-care, work/life balance, and avoiding toxic work environments. These tools and strategies are essential and needed but do not do much to address the root causes of burnout. In Episode 81, Ben chats with Cammie Morgan dig deep into these root causes and offer suggestions on where we can go from here.

In Episode 64, Ben chats with Naomi Tachera, an Indigenous Hawaiian behaviour analyst and mother to a wonderful Autistic son.  This conversation is a fascinating crash course in the history of Hawaiian education,  the ongoing US occupation of Hawaii, and the oppression of Indigenous Hawaiians.  If you're looking to build your cultural competence and develop culturally-responsive interventions for Polynesian clients then this will be a great place to start!

In this episode, I chat with the late Dr. Lyz Hughes-Fong about all things cultural (competence, humility, sensitivity, awareness, and understanding). We discuss diversity trends in behavior analysis and suggestions for moving forward.  
It is with extreme sadness and sorrow that we share the passing of our very dear friend and colleague, Dr. Elizabeth “Lyz” Hughes Fong on February 29, 2024. Dr. Hughes Fong’s pivotal work in cultural competency and humility sparked a movement that has forever shaped the field of behavior analysis toward increased diversity, equity, and inclusion.
 
Lyz was an active member of St. John Chrysostom Church and The Springhaven Club in Wallingford.
 
Lyz was a shining light. Her work and its impact will forever be part of our history and growth. But most importantly, her kind, thoughtful, selfless, and warm spirit will forever be part of our hearts. She had a way of fostering genuine human connection; she brought people together and forged long-lasting friendships that will endure in her absence.
 
Lyz is survived by a husband, parents, sister, and a daughter. She was deeply dedicated to her child's happiness, education, and well-being. In lieu of flowers, donations to support the higher education of Dr. Fong's daughter are appreciated.
 
On behalf of her husband and family, thank you! Please consider donating to the Go Fund Me link below.

In this episode, Ben chats with Anita Li, Ph.D., BCBA-D, about her research on the status of women in behaviour analysis in terms of pay equity, publishing, and more. This leads to a conversation about her article on solidarity among non-Black people of colour in promoting racial equity.
Correction: In the last 30 minutes of this episode Ben mentions recording this episode in January 2020.  The episode was actually recorded January 2022.
