The Power of Representation
LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE:
Representation Matters. It’s something we hear a lot, but we aren’t always encouraged to notice it or bask it in when it happens. This episode is all about soaking up the beauty of bearing witness to representation through the pop culture moments that played out over about a week’s span to illustrate the power of representation – from The Little Mermaid trailer with Halle Bailey to Ms Marvel to a sneak peek of the upcoming Frida Kahlo Broadway musical to the Obama official portraits to an incredibly powerful evening at the Emmys topped with Sheryl Lee Ralph’s epic acceptance speech. Get ready to soak in the power of belonging!
