What happens when a young Black woman faces casual racism in her workplace and dares to challenge it?  In this episode, I sit down with the brilliant Tembe Denton-Hurst to discuss her compelling debut novel, Homebodies.  In the book, we navigate the experiences of her main character Mickey, the personal cost of speaking truth to power in today's media landscape,  and her journey of self-discovery in an industry that she loves but one that doesn’t love her back.
