- Society & Culture

Black people are not a monolith, but 99 percent of our experiences are shared. As a journalist and storyteller, too many people outside of our community tell our stories. This pod focuses on US, intellectually, socially and culturally.
Being from Mississippi, black southern culture embodies a myriad of different genres and this podcast will seek to explore our similarities and differences, rooted in our culture.

2 - Mississippi's Gonna 'Mississippi'
Inevitably in a red state, voters went to the polls on Tuesday, Nov. 27 to cast a vote for a woman who thought joking about attending a public lynching was a good idea. Where does Mississippi go from here? I discuss, plus celebrate small victories that were achieved.

3 - Love, Losses, Lessons
This episode details my shortfalls in 2018, what I learned from them and i'm sure they're relatable. I'm hoping my transparency will prevent not only me, but others from making the same mistakes in 2019.

Brandon Rue is a 21-year-old junior at the University of Southern Mississippi with a fervor for politics. I sit down with him to discuss his passion for change in his home state and why he is seeking public office starting with running to represent House District 102 in Hattiesburg in the State Legislature.

Nick Walker is a 29-year-old physical therapist, but if you follow him on social media (@nickwalkerhecold), you can't tell. Walker is breaking the stereotype of what a doctor should look like and inspiring other along the way.
