Disruptive Narratives
The goal of this project is to reach deep into the community, to raise voices from across neighborhoods and generations, and to bring forth stories, experiences, and perspectives, that have previously been marginalized. The shows will highlight people who are impacted by history and systemic processes of neglect and disinvestment but may not have a seat at the table and may not feel seen. The shows will focus on sharing cultural perspectives that are often not shared or heard because they challenge what we as a society think we know. In the shows the guests are the experts of their own reality.
The project will result in more locally and Minnesota-focused content produced by public radio than would exist if KMOJ didn't have this Legacy funding.
The project will give listeners a better understanding of Minnesota's African American history and culture and the people who shape it.
