Today's episode is with Dr Mazella Fuller. Her story bridges every system immigrants encounter: education, healthcare, and the daily coded rules that shape belonging.

As co-editor of "Antiblackness and the Stories of Authentic Allies: Lived Experiences in the Fight Against Institutionalized Racism,” she has curated voices that map the realities of navigating and confronting explicit and subtle bias in America’s institutions. Her earlier book, "Treating Black Women with Eating Disorders: A Clinician’s Guide,” broke new ground by highlighting how race and migration intersect in mental health.

Raised in an Afrocentric household in the South, Dr. Fuller’s mission to break systemic barriers runs deep. She has spent 30 years advocating, mentoring, and building communities at Duke and Smith College. Whether speaking to mentorship as her daily act of reparations or describing how adjusting to America’s unwritten codes can feel like hacking biased systems, Dr. Fuller offers wisdom that will resonate with everyone listening, from new arrivals to longtime Americans seeking to understand what true allyship looks like in the immigrant journey.
