Diverse Joy Podcast - Season 1, Episode 7
Amber's joy this month is everything festive, most especially the ever-expanding array of Christmas movies! Will's joy is his friend group's annual "Krampus and Crafts" tradition, where they watch the holiday comedy/horror movie Krampus and do a holiday craft project.

This episode's discussion focuses on some common terms used in diversity discussions (cultural competency, cultural humility, and cultural responsiveness), and how to translate those concepts to practical actions. In brief, we recommend learning common ways people may see the world differently from you (cultural competence), but also recognize that we can never have complete knowledge of this (cultural humility), and we should be receptive and thoughtful in our response to listening to others’ perspectives and feedback about their experiences (cultural responsiveness).
This episode's question is "What is justice?" and we discuss how to define and think about social justice in our efforts to be more inclusive.
This episode's bias habit-breaking skill is to Consider Situational Explanations for Behavior.
Amber's media recommendation for this episode is the touching and fun reality TV show, We're Here.
