About this Podcast:
We can always learn, unlearn, or re-learn something about what we thought we knew and see it - again - from a new light. Through a host of guests that range from activists, doctors, authors, therapists, artists, philosophers, and scientists we are asked to try again, to revisit a topic we have probably heard so much about, and come away with a more enriched understanding. Using an intersectional lens, one in which we explore the contents & experiences of our lives through the categories of culture, race, socio-economic status, gender, ability, and different knowledge systems I also hope to amplify the voices, lives, and writings of Black, Brown, Asian, and Indigenous people.
