Welcome, Ms. Murlonda Janelle, to the IT Factor Podcast! Murlonda is a children’s book author. In this episode, we discussed what led to her becoming an author and the importance of representation in books. The work that she is doing is fantastic because most of her characters are based of her nephews. I can only imagine how great they fill when they see there auntie making books not only for black boys, but them being the main characters. This episode took me back to my childhood when I got introduced to the Tiki and Ronde Barber book by my brother's side. I look forward to seeing you grow, and I hope to do another episode with you someday soon! “A Podcast for the People” “Changing The Narrative” Watch more of The IT Factor podcast!!

The IT Factor: Episode 126•Blacks in Sports: Student-Athlete

The I.T. Factor Podcast' is a YouTube show that allows African Americans to come and speak on a comfortable platform about various topics pertaining to the professions they are in. In each episode, I aim to ask each guest, what is their 'I.T. Factor' and why they do what they do. The purpose of the show is to inform the viewers that they can accomplish and do whatever they put their mind to. I created the channel because I felt that blacks lacked representation in their current and future endeavors. Therefore, I progressed through a channel that aired individuals expressing their personal experiences and interests in technology, business, entertainment, sports, culinary (etc.), and any field that is portrayed so that blacks nationwide can see what we are doing to change the narrative.
