    Warning" This episode discusses self-harm.

    On April 18, 2019, 15-year-old Nigel Shelby died by suicide in response to constant homophobic, anti-Black bullying at school.

She provides lessons she’s learned, including through loss and in grief, for caring and compassionate adults. Listen to the episode and read her book, “A Need for Nigel.”

  • Dr. King Didn’t Die For This
    Jan 21 2025
    Survival, friendship, acceptance, and love are themes that thread this episode together. Angela Rye, political strategist, culture architect, entrepreneur and Dr. Johns’ twin, joins the class to process what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s life and legacy have to teach us in this moment: the importance of engaging in rituals that soothe and restore you, including building with friends who challenge you. The two Capitol Hill veterans discuss lessons they learned, including the critical role of the Congressional Black Caucus and building IMPACT to increase political, civic engagement, and economic empowerment among young professionals. The friends and political strategists debate if there are limits to liberal progressivism, how we ensure the safety of every member of our beautifully diverse community, and how we will measure success toward collective freedom and liberation.
