    What can the Legal industry do to foster black talent? Wanipa Ndhlovu starts her exploration of the experience of black lawyers by asking three professionals what employers and universities should be doing at the recruitment stage. Wanipa speaks with:

    • Tashan Dwyer - Trainee at a Magic Circle Law firm
    • Julie Quist-Therson - Diversity and Inclusion Specialist and Head of Law Programme at SEO London
