Do you let out an audible sigh of frustration every time someone says, “We’ve never been more divided” and wish you had a space to engage in dialogue that shows this is simply not true? Or maybe you have a gut feeling that your lived experience isn’t the only one out there but you’ve never known anyone that was significantly different from yourself. The Get Uncomfortable Podcast is for anyone wanting to build community by and through making the uncomfortable conversations about politics, religion, and race that we tend to avoid common-place, and thus produce real healing.

About the Show

America doesn’t need another conversation about race. At least, not the kind we’ve been having … the ones that are sparked by a crisis and move quickly from shock to empty promises to forgetting. No. What America needs are REAL conversations about race—ones that shine a light on the facts, the history, and the reality of how race plays out in our politics and society. That’s what Slate offers each week on A Word … with Jason Johnson. A veteran political commentator, Johnson will bring his incisive wit to thoughtful discussions with leaders, journalists, and other change-makers who will tell the truth about America’s challenges around race and offer ideas on the way forward.
