"Shaashawn Dial is a force of nature! Her presentation to the graduate students in my course at Rider University titled "Leading and Governing Arts Institutions" was inspirational. Shaashawn spoke to diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging and justice in the workplace. She spoke with eloquence, insight and exceptional expertise. Students attested to the impact of her presentation in their assignments focusing on an analysis of the content of the presentation and connection to their own work as emerging leaders. Her presentation affected them intellectually and emotionally...she continues to uplift and inspire me with her conviction and strategic thinking."
- Dr. Gail Humphries, Dean College of Fellows of the American Theatre Tabatha Miller
"Shaashawn Dial visited with my undergraduate "Arts Outreach & Education" students to discuss nuances of community cultural work in preparation for their final community cultural development project. Her insights, particularly surrounding multi-faceted exploration and sensitivities in defining community and community stakeholders/assets were deep and broad. Her advice on exploring varied histories, often unheard/unseen beyond hegemonic historical definitions and contexts, was both impactful and inspiring. Her ability to encourage and inspire these aspiring arts leaders and change-makers from a place of centered, learned "knowing-ness" while simultaneously being entirely open, genuine and embracing of their individualities reflects her innate talent, skill and - above all - humanity."
- Todd Dellinger, Associate Professor, Rider University
