Black Lives Matter
Hello Everyone,
This is a long episode and I don't really have my thoughts in a concise manner, but I though it was important to still cover. Since the death of George Floyd, I have realized how I have become desensitized to the videos I see on police brutality against the African American community. To try and combat that and to break my complacency, I recount the stories of the names of the African Americans I remember being killed by police over the past six years. Especially now, it is important that we are not complacent and fight against the racism and violence that permeates deep in our country's culture and history.
All funds raised in this episode will be donated to the Official George Floyd Memorial Fund. Other funds and organisations that work to end police brutality and fight for black lives are listed below.

Let's Give This A Try
Hi everyone! My name is Natasha and this is my first try at making a podcast. I have been interested in making a podcast for awhile and now that I am stuck at home, I thought it would be a great time to start.
I am not sure where I want to go with this series, but I think I would like it to be a type of diary where I detail what I am going through and what I am feeling.
In this episode, I explain what has happened in my life before and during the COVID-19 lockdown. I hope you enjoy it!
