7:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Misha in conversation with Raza Ahmad, Director, Park Center for Independent Media will explore how podcasts lift-up stories of intersecting identities, defining moments, relationship with faith/spirituality, and activism. When we release those stories onto the airwaves (figuratively speaking), how do they change listeners?
This event is part of a series launched at the beginning of Spring 2020, highlighting the voices of podcast creators. Our first event began with Rabbi Emily Cohen, host and producer of "Jew, Too?" (stay tuned for the live episode recorded in Muller Chapel) and will wrap up in September with the podcast hosts of "The Women of Harry Potter."
