Women and racial minorities are underrepresented in the U.S. Foreign Service. WUFT's Report for America Corps Member Katie Hyson spoke with two African American women in the service – both with Florida ties – about why that is, why it matters, and how to change it. Listen above.

Katie Hyson was a Report for America Corps Member at WUFT News from 2021 to 2023. She now works for KPBS in San Diego.
