Customer Reviews
Distilling essential Black history; this should be required listening!
This podcast was on my feed of recommendations and I’m so glad I found it. I listened to the “Don’t Call The Police” episode first and had no idea that Black medics through an org called Freedom House created the modern EMS systems in the US. Incredible to learn about the history of Freedom House, it’s racist dismantling and how seeds from that organization are flourishing today in a Miami-based mobile response unit under the same name.
Call A Friend: The Freedom House Parts 1 & 2
This group adds to the collective memory of community-based kindness and self-determination. Tremaine Lee is the social vehicle who takes us from one neighbourhood to the next engaging in conversations of triumphs, getting by, trials and especially organizing. I always feel optimistic after listening to an episode. At times, I miss a week or two and have the pleasure of binge listening. Since I’m auditory, I love hearing the sounds of life that Lee experiences firsthand. I feel transported to each location. Mostly I appreciate Lee’s caring storytelling tone of voice and his positive word choices to frame our lived experiences. I know those everyday folk… They are me… I am them. We are us.

One of the best Black History Month podcasts.
Thanks for the interview with Patrisse Khan-Cullors. Your sensitivity to her situation really helped me understand all the stories in the media. Thank you
