This archival episode of Design Matters originally dropped in August of 2022.

It's not women's fault that they are systematically denied opportunities, and I think it's incredibly

dangerous for us to give women the message that if they only did something differently,

if they only wore a softer sweater, if they only spoke with a smile, if they only did

that, then the doors would open.

From the Ted Audio Collective, this is Design Matters with Debbie Millman.

For 18 years, Debbie Millman has been talking with designers and other creative people

about what they do, how they got to be who they are, and what they're thinking about and working on.

On this episode, Jessica Nordell talks about how implicit biases shape our world in negative ways.

We need to solve the problem of the expression of bias. That's where the work needs to be done.
