Your Black Friend Maxwell Griffin

Your Black Friend is a podcast about Black folks answering questions that white folks have about what it means to be Black in the United States.
The truth is that many white people don’t have any Black friends, yet they’re encouraged to become allies.
In each episode host, Maxwell Griffin will invite a new Black friend on and they’ll candidly answer anonymous questions submitted by white people.
Ultimately, the hope is that listening to these conversations help you go beyond allyship and become a co-conspirator in the work to dismantle systemic racism.
