What is freedom? What does it sound like? How do you know when you have it? In this episode, Homegoings talks the complexities of freedom with Todd “Speech” Thomas, lead MC and singer of the band Arrested Development. We also take to the streets of Randolph and Burlington, Vermont, on July Fourth, seeking out BIPOC strangers and family members to ask them a simple question: “What makes you feel free?” We’ll see if we get some simple answers.

Homegoings: A righteous space for art and race.

Homegoings is a podcast that invites listeners to be a fly on the wall, privy to candid and genuine conversations about race.
