Episode 14 Macy Keith: Fusing Allyship Studies with Practical Advocacy

The Critical Social Worker: A Revolutionary Storytelling Podcast

Join us for another episode of "The Critical Social Worker: A Revolutionary Storytelling Podcast". This week, we're privileged to have Macy Marin Keith joining us. Macy, who accepts any pronouns, is a neurodivergent, queer individual who fondly describes themselves as an "accidental social worker". Originally from Utah, Macy dedicated their energy to supporting their queer community before transitioning into their current role, where they work tirelessly with adults who have developmental disabilities in Vermont. Macy's journey is a testament to their tenacity, compassion, and unwavering dedication to advocacy. In this episode, we dive into Macy's unique journey - from earning a master's degree in American studies with a focus on allyship, to navigating the intricacies of their current directorial role. We will explore the challenges and triumphs Macy has encountered along the way, as well as their commitment to learning and growing within their practice of allyship. Macy embodies the principle of allyship as an ongoing, daily practice that is inherently imperfect. Their journey resonates deeply with our podcast's mission: to foster critical dialogue, build empathy and understanding, and highlight diverse experiences that transform our worldviews. Join us for this enlightening conversation as we unravel the threads of Macy's story. Tune in to hear more about their experiences and insights, and how they intertwine their academic background with practical advocacy. Stay with us on this journey of discovery and transformation, one story at a time. Download the Callin app for iOS and Android to listen to this podcast live, call in, and more!
