EAP 6 – Inclusivity, Influence, and Passion Projects




Early Accountability show

Summary: Our guest on this episode of the Early Accountability Podcast with Kimi Walker is India Rias Thompson, communications coordinator at the Purdue University Extension, lifestyle blogger, podcast host, and Regional Director of Black Bloggers United – Indianapolis. India graduated from IUPUI with a degree in Arts and Communication Studies (Broadcasting) and she has used this background to become the social influencer and digital communications resource that she is today. India’s passion about the importance of inclusion originates from her own life experiences of being a black gay woman, making her a target for discrimination in all areas of her life, and her desire to combat this discrimination is evidenced by her confident digital presence. India gives advice to people looking to become their own hero and unapologetically pursue their own “passion project”.
