Hi CTC Podcast Fam,

I am giddy to bring you this next episode, for several reasons.

1. The halftime show was epic, nuanced, art and activism on a massive center stage that I believe needs to be remembered and used as a call to move into action.

2. Change the Channel is all about gaining new perspectives, breaking out of the cycle of what we have always thought or done- and story is one of the best ways to do this. For me as a white bodied woman, there were so many parts of this performance that I knew were important but didn't know why. When we get curious and ask others with different perspectives what we expand our capacity for empathy and empathy is the sustainable spark that will allow bridges to be built relationally, racially, and we radically need this now.

3. I get to introduce you to one of my partners, a man that is Changing the Channel in my life in so many ways through who he is and how he moves through the world. Blake is an activist, dancer/ choreographer, former zoo keeper, podcast host, scholar of life, Ebony king and his perspective on the halftime show left a meaningful mark in my heart and mind- so of course I gotta share it with y'all.

His podcast Normal Guy Sports Talk is a treat, so follow and subscribe to that to get a little more Blake in your life, and we reference key terms of racism in this podcast, here is the link to check it out.

XO,
