Check out our newest podcast, Twice As Good, as we reflect on our transformative trip to The Legacy Museum in Montgomery, AL. In the midst of this crazy presidential election, visiting this sacred space reminded me of how far we have - and have not - come.
The Legacy Museum tells the story of the African-American experience from the Middle Passage to mass incarceration. On the latest episode of the Twice as Good podcast, our founders Sara M. Lomax and S. Mitra Kalita and URL Media Head of Recruitment Leonor Ayala Polley discuss how the history of enslavement relates to how we cover the 2024 election and understand American history. Listen wherever you get podcasts. https://lnkd.in/g2pQPfh7

Reflecting on my whirlwind week…Started with an amazing cultural infusion attending Sonia Sanchez’s 90th birthday party on Monday at Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, New York Public Library. Incredible! Followed by Tuesday’s historic debate where our WURD Radio team provided end to end live coverage from the “spin room” at the Convention Center. Highlight: met the fearless April Ryan and New York City Councilman Dr. Yusef Salaam of the “Exonerated 5.” And ending my week in NYC meeting with my URL Media co-founder S. Mitra Kalita followed by drinks with the fabulous Natalia Antelava and my besties Karen McMullen and Tonya Hopkins. An abundance of riches.
