Thank you for opening your big, generous, brave heart and amplifying black voices on this podcast! In doing so you amplify the voices of all and I am deeply grateful!
Powerful, honest, insightful and often hilarious. I can’t say enough about the impact Dr. Gee’s words have had on my life.
i’ve been listening to Dr. Gee’s podcast since the spring of 2020. The range of topics, perspectives, and insights are invaluable and have provided much encouragement for me to strive to become a more effective ally. I appreciate the frankness of Dr. Gee and his guests and their willingness to share their vulnerabilities and experiences with those of us who have wittingly and unwittingly been insulated from such knowledge.
This podcast is a great resource for everyone, but especially for white would-be allies. Dr Gee’s honesty is brought with such generosity of spirit that if you are willing to drop your defenses and just listen, you can learn! The example in the last episode of white people stopping traffic to help a family of ducks cross the road was both absolutely hilarious and really insightful. Stop making excuses! Do the work.
Most episodes are serious with much needed information for us protected/sheltered whites, but I just listened to episode 13, a lighter side of black life episode. It was absolutely delightful to learn even more ways Black people are just as loving, joking, grieving and worrying people as white people! So many shared memories of growing up. Thank you Dr. Gee and others
