b'On this episode of This Is Woman\\u2019s Work we\\u2019re going to talk about how to be an\\nally. And since about 90% of our listeners are women, I\\u2019m talking mostly about WOMEN being allies women. More specifically, how we can be allies to Black women. Because, in my opinion, there isn\\u2019t a group of women who have the right to demand it more. And I\\u2019m so tired of constantly letting them down.\\nI\\u2019ve asked Aisha Suleiman to join me for this necessary conversation, as she\\u2019s an award-winning diversity and inclusion leader, entrepreneur, and keynote speaker. Her company, The Inclusive Culture, helps organizations build a sense of community by empowering their employee resource groups and encouraging allyship in the workplace. Recognized as an EMpower 100 Ethnic Minority Future Leaders (2020), Aisha has worked with renowned global brands like Amazon and IPG Mediabrands. In 2022, Aisha launched True White Allies \\u2013 a ground-breaking film project that shares the stories of historical White anti-racists from as early as the 1700s to inspire increased allyship and action.\\nI have a strong belief that we can\\u2019t make any real, lasting progress as women, if ALL women aren\\u2019t considered, included, and advocated for.\\nLet\\u2019s be in action, big and small, public and private, proactively and reactively\\u2026 in action, together.\\nBeing an ally\\u2026 now THAT is woman\\u2019s work.\\nTo learn more about Aisha and her work go to https://www.theinclusiveculture.com or follow her on IG @IAmAishaSuleiman or on Youtube at https://www.youtube.com/@aishasuleiman\\nSign up for True White Allies Community: https://truewhiteallies.com/community\\nTo learn more about what we are up to outside of this podcast, visit us at NicoleKalil.com.\\nEmail'
