RACE TALKS® with Kimberly Y. Erwin on WGXC-90.7 FM
Join us LIVE in NOVEMBER for RACE TALKS® with the
THEME: Grit & Gratitude: Reflecting on Heritage & the Resiliency of US!
Race Talks® is this Tuesday, November 19th at 7 PM! Host Kimberly Y. Erwin–author, serial entrepreneur, and seasoned radio programmer–leading the discussion paying homage to indigenous people during Native American Heritage Month, with a special look at women “firsts” in a variety of cultural nooks.
Kimberly is joined by guest TALKer Ellen Chamberlain, an accomplished storyteller and cultural voice, whose work as a food and dining reporter for Commercial Appeal/USA Today in Memphis connects her deeply to the stories and traditions of diverse communities.
A native of metro Detroit, Ellen brings a rich background in Black culture, lifestyle, and music, including a TEDx talk dedicated to hip hop, exploring its misogyny and the identity of the female rap artist. With years of writing for broadcast, print, and digital media, Ellen’s unique ability to connect lifestyle with cultural depth makes her an essential voice in this timely discussion.Also included are reflections on the recent presidential election, touching on the historic candidacy of Vice President Kamala Harris and her historic place in America as a woman of Black and South Asian descent.
Though the outcome may not have been what many had hoped for (especially Host Kimberly), the conversation will center on how to find gratitude in moments of challenge and how resilience can guide us forward.Listeners are encouraged to call in and share along with our Special guests, what they’re most thankful for and any reflections of how our past may guide us to future progress. Garrett Roche, host of The Roche Solid Truth podcast, will also be on hand to bring his signature insights and TRUTH to the table. Don’t miss this powerful conversation–"Forever, FORWARD!"

We will listen and impart the knowledge we have obtained directly from our lives - growing up in the 70s and breaking barriers to allow for a less color-discriminating (not color-blind) society.Both Kimberly and Rev. Kim Singletary are part of the Founder's Circle for Africa's Daughters of the Diaspora (ADD).
