About Being Seen
The award-winning podcast Being Seen is an in-depth exploration of culture’s role in resolving the tension between how we are seen and how we see ourselves. It is a space to explore current cultural representations and their impact through conversations with leading artists, writers, activists, entertainers, and community leaders. If we create nuanced and accurate cultural portrayals of identity and experience, we have an opportunity to reduce stigma and change perception - impacting everything from HIV to institutional inequality. Consulting partners on the project are Novella Ford, Charlene Carruthers, Aria Sa’id, Davina Otalor and Darnell Moore.

You know, the region isn't monolithic. I feel like this is something that southerners, particularly black southerners, say all the time. It's like just because I'm in Georgia doesn't mean somebody in Alabama or Mississippi experiences the same thing that I do. But we are interconnected in a really unique way. So I feel like. On the one hand, the South is easier to digest in the cultural imagination if it's just the Confederacy and the lost cause and black people who live there have no other choice and no option. […]
