NOT ABOUT YOU | Episode 5 Noel Nix

On this episode, Noel Nix talks about what it's like to regularly
be told he's a credit to his race because he defies
expectations. 


Not About You is a podcast about identity and social justice. I’m
the producer and host of the show and I wanted to make a show
where a white, straight, cis-gendered man (that’s me) connected
with folks with different lived experiences from my own about the
ways parts of their identities bump up against injustices. We’ll
be talking about race, gender, religion, representation,
protests, politics, relationships and more. 


My hope is that this series leads to more conversation and
interaction. I want folks who are hesitant or new to standing in
these struggles to feel more comfortable showing up for change
and asking questions. I want underrepresented voices to have new
ways to be amplified and supported.


 I’ve set up a voicemail line, 612-361-9261, where you can
share comments, suggestions and personal stories of your own that
may be used in future episodes of the podcast. If you tell me
which episode you’re responding to, that will help me make follow
up episodes with voicemail responses. Call 612-361-9261 with your
questions, comments or stories.
