About this event:
Go behind the scenes and be part of the audience for a live recording of our Homegoings podcast. Just in time for Valentine's day, Host Myra Flynn sits down with sexologist Tyomi Morgan to talk about sex and racism in America, and the barriers of bias that keep us from loving one another the best we can.
Following the live conversation, Tyomi will lead us in a “speed dating” exercise, where you'll be invited to get to know your audience neighbor more deeply through a series of honest and thought-provoking questions. You don’t need to be single to participate, this is a platonic activity! After that we invite you to mix and mingle while enjoying Jamaican food from Thingz From Yaad and the soundtrack of DJ Fernetic’s vinyl soundscape.
And if you really want to keep the love flowing, meet us at 9 p.m. at Monkey House in Winooski for an afterparty. Myra Flynn and Fernetic will be spinning there until midnight.
The Homegoings Podcast is proudly sponsored by the Rutland Regional Medical Center and the Vermont Arts Council.
