“Code Switch is such a dope podcast. I wish more curriculums and DEI trainings across the country promoted it as a resource and for discussion. I’ve learned so much about so many different cultures, races, and flavors of people. The stories shared have also allowed me to look at my own biases and shortcomings. Some stories shared have inspired me to dig deeper into my own cultural heritage to gain a better understanding of my family’s Black and Native history.
The episode that prompted me to write a review was titled “The truth and lies behind one of the most banned books in America.” First of all.. 😭😭. So many beautiful nuggets in that episode. If only folks would take the time to listen and try to understand.. Mike Curato’s beautiful soul was spreading nothing but love and creating a sense of belonging. Wonderful interview, Ms. Parker. 👏🏾👏🏾 I was crying right along with you!
Adding Flamer to my “banned books to read” list. “Looking where the love is.” We all need to adopt that practice. 🥹”

If you're interested in the more nuanced conversations that actually happen behind the scenes,...”Read full review »

“But then my expectations were kind of low. At least for the first show. I expect that this isn't the show for me because I am black and pretty jaded when it comes to efforts like this. I know that it is hard for white people to talk about being white, unless they are virulent racists, then...”Read full review »
