In our everyday lives, we are constantly making judgements and forming opinions on other people based on age. In this podcast, we unpack the roots of these ideas through intergenerational conversation and discussion, diving deep into personal experiences, and becoming comfortable with vulnerability. Run by a teen, we hope to help provide young adults with a safe and conducive outlet to truly discuss their beliefs, while also offering a safe space for adults to do the same—the issue goes both ways.

Because I Said So: S3E4: Racism in Education, 2 Years Later
In this episode, Malik Waters and I caught up almost two years later on the discussion about racism in education we had in the summer of 2020. We speak on the continuities (or lack thereof) in advocacy for black rights, why we are still having ”firsts” like Ketanji Brown Jackson’s historic SCOTUS confirmation, and the stigma surrounding black men and mental health. As two high school seniors venturing into a new environment and way of life this coming fall, we also discuss fears surrounding college and the way Malik is eager to break down barriers as a black man seeking a career in the field of mathematics. Stick around until the end to be able to hear some of Malik’s thoughts on our Wordle obsession and his record breaking Word Hunt career, as well:) Hope you guys enjoy this one!
