    In this week’s episode, we are joined by Shaznay Martin, a writer and filmmaker who is forging her path in the media world and creating space for Black women on both sides of the camera. As a writer, Shaznay dissects and celebrates movies with complex Black women who take up space. Now, she’s spreading her creative wings by producing her film, inspired by classic Hollywood movies called ‘Noir.’

    As she shares her journey with Christabel, you’ll learn effective strategies for raising support and funding for independent projects, which is crucial for building a supportive community.

  • Ep. 78: Dr. Shaun Anderson - Why I Share the ‘Right’ Stories of Athletes Pushing for Social Justice

    Ep. 78: Dr. Shaun Anderson - Why I Share the ‘Right’ Stories of Athletes Pushing for Social Justice
    Oct 18 2024
    Hi everybody,I think the universe is ‘having a laugh’ because why is the episode we’re playing one week after I broke my ankle about…sports?!TOO. SOON!I jest! It’s fine!In this week’s episode, I speak with Dr. Shaun M. Anderson, the Knight Chair in Sports, Race, and Media at UNC-Chapel Hill, who is on a mission to share how athletes increasingly use their influence for social change. Our conversation comes a week after releasing a new collection of essays called ‘The Power of Basketball: NBA Players, Coaches, and Team Governors on the Fight to Make a Better America.’ The book explores how athletes have confronted anti-Black racism since 2020. One contributor, Washington Wizards guard Malcolm Brogdon, reveals that his mother asked him a critical question during a conversation after the George Floyd protests: “What Now?”I mean…I asked myself the same question during the Paris Olympics closing ceremony. As I listened to IOC President Thomas Bach urging the world to live the Olympics'" culture of peace every single day,” I wondered what living a “culture of peace” looked like in the world of sports, where athletes are regularly told to ‘shut up and play’ as they see—or suffer—indignity. Dr. Anderson, the author of ‘The Black Athlete Revolt,’ answered that question in this episode of AudioDiaspora. In addition to helping me wrap my head around that question, we reflected on the impact of Colin Kaepernick taking a knee nearly ten years ago (I can’t believe that…) – and Dr. Anderson’s journey from ‘guy with a niche idea’ to thought leader on a critical matter.But before we get to this week’s show, I’d like to share a few other happenings:* LISTEN: New Fiction Audio release: The Light EaterJust in time for Halloween, check out this ‘The Light Eater.’ It’s a ghost story set in a logging town called Candela Obscura. It's a world of new cities built on the ruins of a land destroyed by evil magic. What could go wrong? 🎧 Listen here* COMMUNITY: Join the movement to support girls’ education in Ghana: Black Star ExcellenceI’m a proud diaspora Ghana girl and a founding member of the non-profit Black Star Excellence. Join our movement to support future leaders from our home community in completing their education. $30 can make all the difference, but every contribution counts! Thank you to everyone who has donated so far! ♥️ Donate hereNow, onto this week's show:Dr. Shaun Anderson: Why I Share th’ ‘Rig’t’ Stories of Athletes Pushing For Social JusticeThere's a growing movement of athletes who are changing the social justice landscape through protests, strikes, and promoting policy reforms. That's according to Christabel's guest this week, Dr. Shaun Anderson, the Knight Chair in Sports, Race, and Media at UNC-Chapel Hill.He joins her to dissect the evolving role of athletes as catalysts for social change, honor the legacies of trailblazers like Tommy Smith, John Carlos, and Colin Kaepernick, and explore persistent stereotypes that challenge athletes worldwide.Then, discover which sports leagues he says are leading the charge to advance social justice initiatives, hear why he thinks storytelling is vital to advancing the social justice conversation, and inspire change.Then, he reveals the patience and tenacity he needed to nurture social transformation and how, by remaining steadfast, he went from the guy who had the ‘crazy idea’ to a leader in this influential space.Connect with Dr. Anderson:IG: @smandersonphdWebsite: www.shaunmarqanderson.comLearn how to connect with your audience through Editorial and Audience StrategiesSign up for a coaching session with Christabel to discover the tools you can use to build a relationship with your audience through editorial development.

  • Ep. 77: How Did Halle Berry Call Hollywood Out?: AudioDiaspora Round Up

    Ep. 77: How Did Halle Berry Call Hollywood Out?: AudioDiaspora Round Up
    Oct 11 2024
    Hi everybody,I'll try to keep this note short(ish) because, well, a (not very) funny thing happened to me on Monday. I broke my ankle while on a run. I thought it might be a sprain. It turns out it is more than that. So I'm doing something I've never done before. I am going to rest, or should I say, I will sit my @$$ down (aka park my brain and slow things down.How did it happen? Well, I went on a run one day after recovering from the cold that I told you last week had kicked my ass. I was distracted, or, to use the words of a friend who reflected on the story of my fall to me:'Hold on – so you were surveying the area, you were literally deciding if you should go left or right…you stopped focusing on your feet and the uneven sidewalk, and that's when you fell…?' This friend said all this with a solid side eye and raised eyebrow. She trailed off for full effect, and we both chuckled because I was picking up what she put down. I was doing the most, thinking about the goal when I should have kept my eyes on the smaller steps.That said, it's all great. As Josh Rivers, the host of 'Busy Being Black,' reminded me today, it takes a community to help you get back on your feet and make you laugh even when you're forced to slow down. I have that, and they're keeping me honest. I'll be sharing some shorter updates while I take some time to recover, but in the meantime, don't forget to enjoy this week's AD RoundUp, and look out for next week's conversation with Dr. Sean Anderson, author of The Black Athlete Revolt: The Sport Justice Movement in the Age of #BlackLivesMatter. We'll discuss what it takes to stick to your vision, even when everybody doubts you (or worse.)Lastly, I'd like your support for my work with the non-profit Black Star Excellence. We're on a mission to help talented women with limited financial means complete their university education in Ghana and become the leaders they want to be - and the leaders we all need.This week's episode:On today's roundup, Christabel shares where Issa Rae, the creative genius behind Insecure and Awkward Black Girl, shared her secrets for balancing ambition and authenticity. They're insights from which we at AudioDiaspora think aspiring entrepreneurs can get inspiration.If you haven't heard, Halle Berry, the Oscar-winning actress, discovered that Hollywood executives played some shady games to get her to sign on to play the X-Men character Storm. Find out how she reacted to the discovery.And if there ever was a story that epitomized the impact of globalization on local businesses, 'pre-loved' clothing is good for the environment and the world, right? As it turns out, the trend is having an unexpectedly not-so-great impact on some local economies, like Zimbabwe. How is this surge in second-hand clothing reshaping consumer habits and challenging traditional markets?We cover these cultural stories and more in this edition of the AudioDiaspora Round Up!Resources Mentioned:Issa Rae's Story:https://www.businessinsider.com/issa-rae-business-skills-profitable-red-flags-to-avoid-2024-9"Pre-loved" Second Hand Clothing Story:https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2024/9/30/how-secondhand-clothes-took-zimbabwe-by-storm-and-hammered-retailTa-Nehisi Coates' Story:https://www.vox.com/culture/376202/ta-nehisi-coates-the-message-reviewhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/black-author-networkHalle Berry's Story:https://www.avclub.com/halle-berry-thanks-matthew-vaughn-x-men-3-commentsNew Episode Highlight:https://www.audiodiaspora.com/p/nikki-fagbemis-dark-humor-helps-usLearn how to connect with your audience through Editorial and Audience Strategies.Sign up for a coaching session with Christabel to discover the tools you can use to build a relationship with your audience through editorial development.
