I love the honesty, humility, and challenge of this show! I always learn something new and leave with a fresh perspective and broadened view. Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable with us. You make us all better!
Outstanding work
Love the rapport and perspective from the hosts!
Great opportunity to understand context and learn more
I loved episode number two! This was so helpful for me as a white woman to understand more about what it must be like to be black in white spaces.I also think it’s powerfully exemplifies the danger of a single story, in understanding that no two experiences are the same. And yet there is a lot of commonality. Such a great start to this new show!
