Miss Manners may tell you how to behave, but the new podcast series Truth Be Told explores how you can be you in a world that doesn’t always want you to be. Truth Be Told is made by and for people of color and speaks to the unique yet universal challenges that we face in the United States. It’s like the friend you call after an exhausting day — the one who will laugh, cry, scream and moan with you. The one who gets it. Through unfiltered advice, host Tonya Mosley takes on audience questions, digging into what it means not just to survive, but to thrive as a person of color in America. Is it okay to seek out pleasure when the world seems to be burning? Am I having a child just to make mi mamá happy? Is it worth it to establish ties with estranged relatives? of There Will Be No Miracles Here; Jeff Chang, author of Can’t Stop Won’t In search of answers to these questions and Stop; and Tonya’s 92-year-old grandmother, Ernestine Mosley. more, Mosley travels from San Francisco to Detroit Profoundly personal and resonantly universal, Truth Be Told transforms to New York over six episodes to speak with into more than an advice show — it’s a journey of liberation paved with unconventional experts whose wisdom stems from laughter and love, centering on the voices, stories, joy and wisdom of their lived experiences, studies and artistry — people people of color. like adrienne maree brown, author of Octavia’s Find Truth Be Told for free on Apple Podcasts, NPR One or wherever Brood and Pleasure Activism; Casey Gerald, author you get your podcasts or visit kqed.org/podcasts/truthbetold.
