Description
Black-Liberation.Tech: Academic & Career Coaching for the Digital Age
Your academic and career journey shouldn't require leaving your culture at the door. Tailored for high-achieving Latinas, Afro-Latinas, Black women, and girls, the Black-Liberation.Tech podcast is your strategic guide to navigating school (Grades 6–PhD), career pivots, and the evolving tech landscape.
Hosted by Dr. Renée Jordan—an ecosystem builder, educator, and instructional technologist—this podcast transforms complex tech concepts and institutional roadblocks into practical, everyday strategies. Whether you are a DIY learner advocating for yourself in elite spaces, an early-stage professional charting your career, or a mother guiding her daughter's future, this is your space.
Tune in as we tackle:
AI Literacy & Prompt Engineering: How to use AI as a personal thinking buddy to reduce cognitive load, rather than a shortcut.
DIY Learning Strategies: How to navigate challenging classes, ask the hard questions, and survive the "messy middle" without burning out.
Academic & Career Strategy: Securing scholarships, building portfolios, and identifying your non-negotiables early on.
Grounded in the African philosophy of Ubuntu ("I am because we are"), this podcast is a tool for collective liberation. Stop merely consuming technology and start creating your future. Listen in to build your skills, and join an ecosystem committed to your success.
