No, Totally!

Shaun talks with the unabashed, uncensored, and unstoppable founder of The Tempest, Laila Alawa.

As an American Muslim, Laila knows that not all corners of the country are ready to accept her with open arms, but earlier this year, she became the target of a right-wing hate campaign. Hear how it's reinforced her belief that an inclusive platform for millennial is important and necessary.

Shaun speaks with activist, writer, and Fulbright scholar Bernard Hayman about anti-Blackness, why it's useful to distinguish it from a broader term like "racism," and how easy it is to be passively anti-Black in America.

I mentioned in this episode that Microsoft had, at one time, "bailed out" Apple. I got a few things wrong. First, I meant to say "100 million dollars," but said "one million" instead. Both are incorrect; it was $150 million. Second, it turns out that Microsoft's investment was likely not intended to save Apple.
