S5E2 - Celebrating Black History Month by Listening, Literally (Part I)

Over the next two weeks, I’ve put together bits and pieces of the stories from guests on this show who have shared their experiences on being Black in this country. Their willingness and vulnerability brings me back to the main mission of this show which is to provide a platform for those who may not be able to tell their stories otherwise. And of course, to hear how they’ve faced and conquered fear along the way.
