This is one of the most thought inspiring and provoking podcasts out there. I always learn new things and appreciate getting an inside opportunity to hear from a community that I am or as familiar with. As a white woman, I aim to expand those who I learn from and this podcast is an incredible wealth to me.

I love this podcast for the diversity of subjects that are covered from perspective that speak to me and that I seek out. Thank you for the January 6th special investigation. That was so informative to hear from people of color that were directly involved in investigating the attempted coup of white supremacists. Really amazing and vital work. Now I know why there have been so many guest hosts for Ms. Chideya but they’ve all been great. Please keep up this brilliance!

I don’t know how many 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ratings they will allow from me. But I wouldn’t know half of what I know about what’s happening in the world or within the Black world if Farai didn’t focus and report on it. I had no idea half of the guests even existed because mainstream isn’t covering them. I have admired Farai for a while. I have learned so much from her writing and journalism. 💐 Keep doing it girl, you do it well. 👍🏾🫶🏾 Lolita Pitts/ Big LoLo 😁 Clinton Township, Michigan

I’m so glad I found this podcast. The January 6 series was a wonderful antidote to my daily increasing dread fueled by fascist white supremacy and the upcoming election cycle. Thanks to everyone — and especially the investigators — for truly inspiring work.

I am so grateful for this podcast. For all the thought, care, warmth, intellect and insight Farai Chideya puts into each episode. I am always engaged, and learn so much.

Thank you. I listen every week. Your work is a relief in a sea of mediocrity. -an aging white lady in the Midwest

I have been a fan of Farai Chideya for well over a decade. This information void that she has filled through this podcast is just so effective and incredible. I love that it brings together women authorities and experts, known and unknown, from all over North America to discuss what is not spoken about from the perspective of not only being black but woman. It really is needed by the black community and I couldn’t be more pleased to see black women succeeding!

I was wondering what she was doing - since many years in NPR & her episodic career book. This podcast was a nice surprise! Of course, the show is well informed and centered on the multifaceted lived experiences of black women and so much more. Thank you!

Listened to transpolitics 101 and super informative. I didn’t realize all the insidious ways the state is trying to control! It runs along the same lines of eugenics, it’s another public health and human rights issue - and appreciate the visibility on this podcast. These episodes have been becoming such an important place for development of politicization and I hope you all continue to challenge and push us through this content. Would love an episode around abolitionism!!!

I love how this episode dug into the nuances of gun violence, women’s health, and specifically black ppl’s health. The fact that roe v wade is being turned over at the same time men are being encouraged to buy guns is no accident, and y’all did a great job of highlighting that overlap. I don’t think the vast majority of ppl are making that connection.
