The Personal and The Political

  • Resumen

  • Artists are often the voice for social movements. Some make it their life's purpose, while others are thrust into politics by circumstance. Episode three shares inspiring stories from artists navigating identity, society, and the industry. First we share a story from a singer with a mission. Then, from a performer dragged into a political battle. And lastly, from a groundbreaker who confronted racism and found a gateway to tell her story through art.

    TRIGGER WARNING: There is discussion of disordered eating between 24:05 and 25:10.

    Act One: “Songs In The Key Of Change” with Wayna, a recording artist based in Washington, D.C.

    Act Two: “The Kindness Of Strangers” with Dennis Porter, a variety artist and owner of Happy Faces Entertainment in Kansas City, Missouri.

    Act Three: “Bravery in Brass” with Dr. Jazzie Pigott, a tuba player and composer in Baltimore, Maryland.
