In this Let's Review session, Kim and Jenn talk with Dr. Robin Means Coleman and Dr. Darnell Hunt to get at the heart of a listener-friend question about the proliferation of black leads on TV. Are we seeing a new era in black representation on TV? What's happening behind-the-scenes? Is there progress there? Spoiler alert: nope. But that doesn't stop us from having a great, informative conversation.

Let’s Review #5 — A closer look at the words we use when discussing race and racism

A podcast focused current events, pop culture, identity, and the tricky art of navigating life.

Your hosts are Jenn White and Kim Springer.

Kim is a recovering academic and a lapsed activist. Once she gets over this latest bout of bourgeois rage, she’ll probably do something bold beyond wearing sassy t-shirts. Stay tuned!

Jenn is a public radio host and full time dog mom. She cooks a lot, boxes out her bourgeois rage on a heavy bag, and plans to eventually finish a couple of kids’ books and a screenplay or two.
