The Body Myth – Body Liberation for All ft. Dalia Kinsey

Brooke Warner

Dalia Kinsey joins The Body Myth for a conversation about looking at the body in a holistic way, how health intersects with racial identity in the US, systemic LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC oppression and how allies in a lot of spaces tend to take center stage, why we don’t need to demonize any body size, and how as a culture we spend so much time trying to control our bodies instead of using our bodies to do the things we want.

ABOUT THE GUEST

Dalia Kinsey is a queer Black Registered Dietitian, keynote speaker, the creator of the Body Liberation for All podcast, and author of Decolonizing Wellness: A QTBIPOC-Centered Guide to Escape the Diet Trap, Heal Your Self-Image, and Achieve Body Liberation. On a mission to spread joy, reduce suffering, and eliminate health disparities in the LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC community, Dalia rejects diet culture and teaches people to use nutrition as a self-care and personal empowerment tool to counter the damage of systemic oppression.
