15 OCT 2024 · Welcome back KSFam! This is the first episode of our tenth season! To celebrate this milestone, we are diving into our namesake - what does it mean to be Kinda Sorta Brown? For some of us, it is term that gathers all people of color together. For others, it resembles a personal message of a multi-cultural background. No matter how we see it, we can agree "Kinda Sorta Brown" is a mantra that projects unity. That leads us to our broad theme for this season: community and coalition among people of color. It is a great thing to learn about the uniqueness of different groups, and discuss how we can be an ally to each other. Tune in for this upcoming season to discover why!

2 APR 2024 · Hey KSFam! It all starts with mom although we’ve come to the end of the road, we just can’t let you go without discussing the pivotal role black mothers play in their sons’ lives. The portrayal of Black men, in media, continues to have negative effects on the way Black boys perceive themselves and grow into adulthood. One way in which this poor representation is often combated is through the black mother’s presence. Join hosts, Aaron, Logan, and Ethan on our last episode of the season as they sit down with black mothers and discuss the portrayal of black men in society while highlighting how black mothers help to transform boys into men.

24 JAN 2023 · Think of your favorite museum. How is the museum layed out? Who or what does the museum give space to? What is exhibited? Where are said items from and how were they obtained? War, violence, and theft underlie the history of museums in addition to the artifacts that lie within them — a colonial undercurrent that is only beginning to be addressed in the present day.
In this episode, join Hope and Jon as they discuss cultural repatriation and how black and brown people can reclaim their own narratives in these institutional spaces as they reimagine them with Debra Yepa-Pappan, artist and Native Community Engagement Coordinator at the Field Museum for the Native Truths Exhibition.

30 DEC 2022 · In the two and half years since KSB’s inception, going on eight seasons, the number of transformational guests we’ve welcomed, and the countless KSFam we have been listening in, our time has been spent learning, questioning, and diving into issues that matter to our POC communities. The opportunity to discuss these topics is vital for our communities to share our stories and experiences. But, as we know, our communities can not be limited to a one time listen, episode, or story.
We must reevaluate, re-educate, and reimagine what we’ve previously explored. Reimingaing as a practice is what this new season will tap into. As one of our KSB team values is to learn and explore through stories, we are excited to take the KSFam on a journey of reimagining. We are growing, and this season is the practice of that. Reimagining allows us to back and look forward at the same time. Come along and reimagine with us all throughout Season 8.

27 DEC 2022 · Discussions on Palestine in the U.S. are always framed as a “conflict”, when the issue is not really a matter of two equally matched opponents, but rather the occupation and extraction of resources by Israel that has displaced Palestinians from their homes. Although Palestinians still in Palestine and those spread throughout the world continue to face challenges from the Israeli state, Palestinians continue to resist, persevere, and uplift each other, their traditions, culture, and homeland.
We will be in conversation with a Palestinian who has asked to go by “Shireen”, in honor of journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, who was a renowned Palestinian-American journalist who was assassinated by Israeli forces while on the job. Our guest’s voice has been distorted to protect them from the doxxing tactics often used to silence activists. At KSB, we are committed to amplifying the voices of marginalized communities across the globe and we believe that it is imperative that voices like Shireen’s are heard. We are appreciative of having Shireen on the podcast and hope you’ll take a listen, learn, and share. (P.S. - We know that you all have been patiently awaiting the finale to our seventh season “Penny for Your Thoughts”, and we are beyond excited to share with you all this episode. We just want to give you all a huge thank you for listening and always supporting our work! The KSB Team sends lots of love)
