ImmiGREAT: First Generation and Overcoming the Impact of Structural Racism in STEM Career Paths

We premiere Season 2 with a deep dive into a discussion about the impact of casual and structural racism on inequities in STEM. We are joined by Nikki Nguyen, a graduate student working on her Masters in Public Health at Columbia University.  She shares her perspective coming from an immigrant family and  the challenges first generation students, immigrants and their children face in getting equal footing. She provides uplifting advice to anyone going through the first generation and/or immigrant experience about how to stay the course and come out successfully.
