“It’s hard to sum up this podcast in a just a few words, but I will start with this: listen to it, it is very good.
This series shines a probing light on some of the realities of life as a Black American during segregation and how the weight of those experiences still shapes Black culture and identity. It successfully manages to look a dark period of our history square in the eye and yet come away with a message of optimism and celebrate the tenacity, creativity, and fortitude of a people experiencing great hardships.
Some of the stories will make you smile or even laugh, others will make your heart ache. The historical background puts these accounts into context and deepens their impact.
The script is exceedingly well written, the editing and pacing are solid.
If there is any fault at all, it would be that the narrator is a little over precise in his speech patterns when reading the script, making for an odd cadence, but this is a minor issue that is easily made up for by his skill as an interlocutor. The empathy and connection he is able to bring to the interviews is phenomenally deep and vibrant. Don’t be put off by it, your patience will be amply rewarded.”
