Starting today, you can stream the podcast Backlash on Audible! Listen now at: https://lnkd.in/enzsqyUP Every episode tells a story of a backlash against movements of progress during the Civil Rights era - from the riots against integration in Boston public schools, to the gun control bill in California passed specifically to disarm the Black Panthers. Taken together, these stories reveal how inequity remains threaded into our everyday, trouble standard narratives of American history and political progress, and center the voices of organizers and scholars who teach us about what progress actually looks like. And, also, the show is hosted by me! Working on this project was easily one of most challenging things I've ever done. It was also one of the most edifying. I'm grateful for the people I interviewed for this show, who shared their stories, revealed histories I never knew existed, challenged my thinking, and helped me see our world in a clearer, sharper way. They changed the way I thought about time, about history, about how we build better worlds, and about what building better worlds even means. Finally - so many people were involved in bringing this show to your ears, and I am so grateful to all of them. In particular, I am forever indebted to the team that worked on this show with me - editor extraordinaire Lindsey Kratochwill and powerhouse producers Grace Lynch, Taylor Williamson, and Abbey Delk. This show simply would not exist without their excellent work, thought, and care. I'm also so thankful for Ana De Almeida Amaral and Asia Ewart, MA for their contributions and fact-checking prowess, to Chelsea Daniel for composing the theme music of my dreams, to Emily Rudder for believing in my ideas and pushing me to share them, to Aria Goodman for the most lovely looking show art, and to Wonder Media Network and Audible for making this show real and possible. I hope you listen! And I hope you enjoy.
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Backlash, our new Audible Original show! Hosted by Adesuwa A., the six-part series unpacks different backlashes in American history – and uses these stories to come to new understandings of what progress actually is as we navigate our complicated present. Thank you to Audible for making this possible! Listen to Backlash now on Audible: https://lnkd.in/enzsqyUP

To our dear community: When we launched Wonder Media Network six years ago this month, we set out with a very clear mission: to tell unique stories with underrepresented voices. Over these past many years, we’ve expanded our work beyond our original content to develop a truly formidable, award-winning creative studio. This work would not be possible without the incredible talents and creativity of our brilliant (and growing!) team, and our deeply valued clients who have trusted us with their most precious stories and goals. As a small and bootstrapped business, we’re extremely proud of how we’ve weathered the past several tumultuous years in the media landscape. There’s been a pinch of luck, a lot of hard work and much thoughtful positioning for ourselves and our clients. And so we’re excited to present a brand new website, made with the wonderful team at Massive Media, that better captures the magic and methodology of WMN. We’d love to hear your feedback, and hope you’ll enjoy a more holistic gallery of the work we’ve poured ourselves into. Here’s to the next chapter! Best, Shira & Jenny PS: We are hiring! Send us your brightest. https://lnkd.in/e9Wmeja9
