- Maatschappij en cultuur
Twenty Twenty was obviously one of the most unprecedented and challenging years most of us have ever experienced. A worldwide pandemic forced the global economy into free-fall, record job layoffs and business closures contributed to staggering unemployment levels not seen since The Great Depression, police killings of black people, protests, and a woefully ill-equipped US President fanned the flames of hatred and division as our country faced a cultural reckoning 400 years in the making. But, guess what? You survived it! And so did we - by learning, having tough conversations, changing, adapting, and growing. Hosted by Rhea Roberts-Johnson, Marcus "Don Dada" Johnson and Ranella Ferrer, I Survived Twenty Twenty is a podcast and lifestyle brand dedicated to shining a light on stories of opportunity born out of adversity. Like a gorgeous phoenix rising from the ashes, welcome to I SURVIVED TWENTY TWENTY.
