I titled this review to suggest that Marie covers all bases, not assuming any prior knowledge. The discussions can sound remedial, but I appreciate that this approach is disarming and very informative. I am impressed by how she presents multiple viewpoints and illustrates the complexity of these issues. I am a white man who came with some understanding of my privilege and subconscious racism, and have learned a lot from this series. Thanks Marie!
So timely. So necessary.
Excellent podcast! I learn many things each episode. The information I learn makes me feel empowered and gives me the encouragement to do better. Thank you. I’m so sad this is the end of the podcast but I look forward to whatever is next for Marie.
Great podcast, learned heaps and only just got started after following for a while on IG. Very informative and good at addressing different views.
Marie’s discussions are extremely informed, nuanced, fair, and constantly challenge my assumptions. She is brilliant and compassionate and an extremely effective advocate, and she teaches you how to be one too. I refer people to these episodes often. Thanks so much for your work!
