Our True Colors

I just listened to the episode regarding intersecting communities. What a great conversation Shawna had with her son. I appreciate the honesty. My family is biracial, too, and it was so interesting to hear what Shawna’s son had to say. Thank you and I look forward to hearing future episodes and catching up on the older ones.

I was so thrilled to stumble upon this show in a Facebook group and couldn't hit the subscribe button fast enough! I've heard "What ARE you?" more times than I could ever count. I'm white and Mexican and while I'm "white passing" I often get asked so many bizarre questions based on my appearance and race and never really had a connect with others who also go through life like that. Thank you for giving us a voice! I'm so excited about this and I'm a fan for life!

Shawna is an amazingly good interviewer. She has the voice for it and she expertly navigates through the interview making it more of a conversation rather than a Q&A. The topic is especially relevant today in America where people of color will become the majority of the work class in 10years. Identity and belonging is therefore going to play a big role.

I selected the show aired on May 9th with your Mother due to not having my Mother in my life. I will check out other shows as well, your voice is calming & you asked questions in a conversational way. It didn’t sound like I have these 4 questions. I have a family that is Military & it’s awesome for them to be able to travel out of the country & they have lived abroad as well. I enjoy listening to podcasts & your voice is easy on the ears! Keep going! Great job
