Aaron Kroon is adopted and came to Sweden 1978, as the first person of colour in a small Swedish village. His parents has always been his greatest allies and one of the main reasons for him being where he is today. Maybe against his odds. This weeks guest of A regenerative future, is ranked as top 3 in "Swedish Role Model of the Year” 2022, he is a Diversity Trailblazer and People Director at Schibsted Nordic Marketplaces. He today uses his platform to fight for equal rights for all and especially for the LGBTQIA+ community. We talk about the importance of a safe team of family, friends and colleagues around us, how to deal with hate, discrimination and racism thrown at you, about him being too cool for school, and how we all can use our voices for the greater good. Then we ask ourselves why strong voices suddenly go silent, addressing our moments of doubt, sharing the story of how we both got a job offer turned down in last minute because of being gay and sharing our key defining moments in life. Ending up with the importance of being humble about the privelleges we all have and that its a duty for us, to us it for the better of others who are less fortunate. Aarons advice to all of us out there is to dont apologise for who we are, use our voice for the better and lets be brave together!
