Dr. Shana Almeida, Assistant Professor, Ryerson University

"Decoding Diversity Speak: How Racism Thrives Through Inclusion"

Dr. Shana Almeida is an Assistant Professor in the School of Professional Communication at Ryerson University, specializing in politics and race. Her research and teaching contributions are informed by over six years as political staff in the municipal government of Toronto. During her time at the City of Toronto, Dr. Almeida spearheaded several City-wide policy initiatives in the areas of anti-racism, equity, immigration, employment, recreation, public health, poverty, and housing. Dr. Almeida completed her Ph.D. in Social Work at York University in Toronto (2016). Her doctoral thesis, an exploration of how race is reproduced through 鈥渄iversity鈥� discourse in the City of Toronto, provides the foundation for her forthcoming book Toronto the Good? Negotiating Race in the Diverse City, with University of Toronto Press. The book uniquely attends to what diversity does, to remake the City of Toronto as a beacon of democracy, racial inclusion, and progress. Initiated in a local context, the book critically contributes to global debates on the roles of racial inclusion, representation and political participation in advancing anti-racism and social justice. Dr. Almeida has been invited to share her work locally and internationally, including in Toronto, Berlin, Frankfurt, London, and Grahamstown, South Africa.
