Podcast Overview

Not About You is a podcast about identity and social justice. I'm the producer and host of the show and I wanted to make a show where a white, straight, cis-gendered man (that's me) connected with folks with different lived experiences from my own about the ways parts of their identities bump up against injustices. We'll be talking about race, gender, religion, representation, protests, politics, relationships and more. My hope is that this series leads to more conversation and interaction. I want folks who are hesitant or new to standing in these struggles to feel more comfortable showing up for change and asking questions. I want underrepresented voices to have new ways to be amplified and supported. I've set up a voicemail line, 612-361-9261, where you can share comments, suggestions and personal stories of your own that may be used in future episodes of the podcast. If you tell me which episode you're responding to, that will help me make follow up episodes with voicemail responses. Call 612-361-9261 with your questions, comments or stories.
