Amplify the Voices of Women of Color Podcasters with WOC Podcasters Founder Danielle Desir
A few years ago, Spotify created a program to help 10 aspiring women of color podcasters launch their shows. More than 18,000 people applied. Danielle Desir saw the need for a community for all these women and WOC (Women of Color) Podcasters was born.
I invited Danielle onto Podcasting Step by Step to learn more about the WOC Podcasters origin story, and about the group’s mission to amplify the voices of WOC podcasters. You heard me talk about her group’s Podcaster’s for Justice campaign on my Interview Inclusivity episode.
Danielle’s group now has more than 3,000 podcasters in its Facebook Group, and in this episode, you’ll learn how Danielle is nurturing and growing this community. By the way, while the mission of WOC Podcasters is to amplify WOC voices, all women are welcome to join the group.
