The third series of espresso? podcast, titled “Justice, Power, and Design,” takes on one of the most pressing and complex topics in design today: power and equity.
Hosted by Deaa Bataineh and Carlos Teixeira, and featuring special guest Jessica Meharry—a design scholar known for her anti-oppressive framework—this five-episode series unpacks how power dynamics are embedded in design practices, institutions, and sociotechnical systems.
In each 5-minute episode, the series challenges listeners to critically examine how design reinforces or resists systems of oppression—and what justice-oriented design practice might look like in action.
This series is a call to rethink how we design, who design serves, and what it takes to create truly just futures.
