Without further ado, I want to invite for color nerds.

We're thrilled to have them here.

And thank you all for coming out in the rain.

Yay.

We appreciate y'all rocking with us.

We really appreciate you guys coming to this because you really didn't have to.

But to jump into it, this is the conversations that black people have.

When white people are not in the room.

But we record them.

And we put them on the internet.

We're going to be talking to some awesome people.

We'll be talking to New York Times Magazine staff writer and co-hosts of

the awesome podcast Still Processing, the fabulous Jenna Wortham.

And then we are going to chat with the author of the wonderful book, The Star Side of Bird

Hill, the amazing Naomi Jackson. And Naomi will be joined by the creator of the well-read Black Girl Book Club

and overall books-oficionado Miss Glory Edom.

Yes, give a shout out.

So our first guest is, as we said, a staff writer for New York Times Magazine, co-host of the podcast Still Processing,

and the author of the greatest holistic health newsletter in circulation.

Jenna Wortham.

Jenna, welcome. Thank you so much.

Thank you for having me.
