I am a big podcast listener and I am currently looking for podcasts that talk about race and racism done by African-American podcasters, any suggestions would be appreciated.

@klandwehr Seeing White by John Biewen is amazing. He has a black co-locuter called Chenjerai Kumanika who helps him see a black person’s perspective.

@klandwehr "Pod Save the People" may interest you. It is hosted by the activist DeRay McKesson.

@jeremycherfas @klandwehr Agreed! I recommend this one to a lot of folks. Didn't say because I wasn't sure if it counted.

@klandwehr Yes. Then came Men, about gender inequity. And currently they are examining democracy.

@toddgrotenhuis I think it has to count by virtue of Chenjerai.

@klandwehr it is about black culture more widely but I would recommend ‘The Nod’ on GimletFM . Much missed.

@klandwehr If you subscribe to Slate Plus, they have Slate Academy seasons both on the history of slavery in the US and on Reconstruction. The latter of which is hardly taught in schools and super important to understanding how Jim Crow happened.

@jeremycherfas @susan @toddgrotenhuis @mjdescy , Thanks for all your suggestions. They are helping me remember, be reminded of and learn new things about race and racism in the United States through the eyes of the victims.
