    Namaste (Featuring Janelle Moore)

    In our season finale we’re joined by Larry’s long time friend, Janelle Moore. They discuss growing up Black in Des Moines, and compare it to Janelle’s new life in the bright lights of L.A. (That tv show we talk about aired in October 7th, 2020). Larry also talks about Trumpism, and it’s unfortunate presence in the workplace.

A must listen for Iowans

Thank you, Larry for providing your experiences and the contributions of your guests on what it feels like to grow up Black in Iowa. I hope this opens up some self reflection for White listeners who are seeking to understand the perspectives of others. More so, I hope this continues to be an outlet for Larry and his guests to share the joy of coming together with others in a space not dominated by White voices and experiences to openly discuss the despair, resilience and hope of growing up and raising kids while Black in America.
