Truth Be Told American Public Media

If freedom is a birthright, host Tonya Mosley is on a journey to experience the depths of it. Season 5 explores emerging science that shows psychedelics like MDMA and psilocybin mushrooms can help to heal racial trauma, whether it’s diagnosed PTSD or the kind of trauma that comes from the pain of living as a Black person in a racist world. Join us on the journey, beginning April 13th.

Hey fam, Truth Be Told will be back for a new season this spring! In the meantime, enjoy this timely encore conversation about body autonomy with journalist and abortion activist Anoa Changa. If you haven't listened to seasons 3 and 4, get on it! Season 5 of Truth Be Told is coming in April.

We want to turn you on to a new show that you should consider adding to your podcast queue: History is US. It’s a 6-part documentary podcast from C13-Originals Studios and Jon Meacham — the team behind the 2021 Webby Award-Winning Best Podcast Series “It Was Said.“
It’s written and narrated by Dr. Eddie Glaude, who is a friend of Truth Be Told. You might remember him as a Wise One from Season 2. Eddie is an award-winning author and professor of African American Studies at Princeton University – and he’s such a deeply reflective and generous thinker.
It’s a limited series that aims to help us understand how we got here, and how we can all use history to clarify the choices before us.

Bad habits, toxic relationships, soul-sucking jobs — our inner voices tell us the truth, but are we listening? A moment of nakedness in the vastness of the ocean helped restaurant owner Kristi Brown slow down enough to hear what her inner voice was telling her. On this episode of Truth Be Told, we explore how listening to ourselves can lead us to joy and our ultimate purpose.

#MeToo founder Tarana Burke is known as a truth-teller. In this episode of Truth Be Told she goes even deeper, revealing for the first time the depths of despair she’s felt over the last few months, and the ways during these dark times she’s chasing joy and renewal. 
And grab your notebook! Mental health counselor Rian Roberson steps in to give us our own mini-therapy session. 

What are the words - when there are no words?
In the face of so much violence, death, and heartbreak, minister and writer Danté Stewart joins us to talk about what he calls “little experiments of liberation.”

GUESTS:
Danté Stewart, minister, writer and author of Shoutin’ Into The Fire: An American Epistle.
