Due to personal reasons, the release of the next PoC episode has been pushed back to Wednesday, June 24. We apologise for missing this week, but in its place, we would like to present to you the podcast, 'We The Unhoused'.

In many ways, this podcast gets to the very core of what the platform is all about. Podcasting has the ability to empower people through accessible technology. That accessibility and freedom allows for creative control over a product that highlights voices and personal experiences that would otherwise go unnoticed.

ABOUT PoC: SHOUT OUT

​In the course of researching, every now and then, Olly and Gareth come across certain podcasts that we wish more people could hear. Some are obscure and some are more mainstream. Obviously, we are great fans of podcasting and want to spread the word as much as possible. So, we thought - why not do exactly that? Why not promote the very podcasts we think everyone should listen to? And so, PoC: SHOUT OUT was born.

ABOUT 'WE THE UNHOUSED'

We The Unhoused is a podcast that lifts the voices and struggles of the unhoused in LA and beyond. Host Theo Henderson is currently unhoused and resides in Chinatown, Los Angeles. He tackles issues such as police brutality, harassment, policy, and the survival challenges of unhoused people. Through a series of interviews, we will discuss issues that are germane to unhoused people like the cost of living, gentrification, health struggles, harm reduction, and trauma-informed care. The revolution will be heard on this podcast. Tune in each week to be a part of it.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Amidst the uprising, Theo interviews Black Trans Organizer Chella Coleman, who experienced homelessness and currently sings in a band.

Gareth and Olly look at the recent movements of the CCP to undermine Hong Kong's autonomy. What does that mean for the millions of people who proudly proclaim themselves to be Hong Kongers rather than Chinese?

In this episode, Gareth and Olly look at the issues facing the people of the world's youngest nation, South Sudan.

Having fought for decades to obtain it's independence that finally became a reality in 2011; the tiny country was quickly plunged into civil only two years later as the President and Vice President fought over political power and oil. As always, those who were hurt the most were the most vulnerable, which in South Sudan, is the majority of the population.

Now that the fighting has mostly stopped, what remains is a country riddle with famine and poverty, created by conflict and compounded by climate change and the global impact of Covid-19. Organised crime is on the rise and a lucrative trade in children has made it exceptionally dangerous for both boys and girls to simply walk the streets. South Sudan has also seen the increased practice of families selling of their daughters for marriage to the highest bidder - sometimes even using Facebook to facilitate the sale.

Gareth and Olly look into the sexual assaults allegations leveled at presumptive Democratic presidential nominee and former Vice President, Joe Biden by former junior aide, Tara Reade.

What they find is a deeply frustrating topic, full of contradictory information, changing stories, political bias and a man who doesn't understand why touching women without consent should not happen.
