Summary

In this really great discussion, we talk with science communicator Sibusiso Biyela about decolonizing science, from both theoretical and practical standpoints! This is a fascinating topic that we hope to explore further in upcoming episodes, and a topic that doesn't get nearly the attention or comradely discussion that it deserves.

Sibusiso Biyela is a science communicator and journalist in South Africa. He also co-hosts the isiZulu language science podcast iLukuluku. You can find more of Sibusiso's work through his Linktree, and follow him on twitter @astrosibs.
