My new podcast
#GettingEven
is about equality and what it takes to get there.
In the first episode, I share my thoughts on President Biden’s historic announcement of a Black female Supreme Court nominee in a conversation with
@marclamonthill
.
On
#GettingEven
, I’ve spoken to people who are improving our imperfect world. On the season finale, I sit down with two change-makers who are also my dear friends—
@DrGuySheftall
&
@EconomicJustice
—to both reflect on our past and look forward.
Uncovering the hidden stories of your ancestry is a rare and wonderful gift, and I have to thank
#FindingYourRoots
and
@HenryLouisGates
for making it happen. See my story unfold tonight at 8/7c on
@PBS
or stream on !
For my entire career, I’ve been committed to advancing equality for the vulnerable and underrepresented. Over 30 years of research goes into the making of this show.

@SusanDellerRoss
was the only member of my 1991 legal team with experience in sexual harassment litigation. She joined me on
#GettingEven
to piece together what was missing from the conversation at Clarence Thomas's
#SupremeCourt
confirmation hearing.
I caught up with
@Sifill_LDF
on the very last day of her nearly decade-long tenure leading the NAACP Legal Defense Fund (
@NAACP_LDF
) to talk about what it means to run a modern day civil rights organization.
#GettingEven
Stay tuned at the end of the episode as we pose the question “what if?” What if the hearings hadn’t been so poorly handled in 1991? What if the public had been offered a better understanding of sexual harassment during the hearing? Where would we be today?

I enjoyed my conversation with
@guidetoglo
on her new
@wellreadblkgirl
podcast. We got a chance to talk about my latest book “Believing,” my work with the
@HWDCommission
, and the need to believe women when they are brave enough to speak their truth:
Leading today’s American civil rights movement is a massive job.
@Sifill_LDF
personally reviews EVERY brief that is filed to the federal and Supreme courts. Hear about the rest of what's on her plate and on her mind on my podcast
#GettingEven
:
The
@NAACP_LDF
has handled many of the biggest civil rights cases in the country. And in her time leading the organization,
@Sifill_LDF
created a rapid response team, which has helped shape the larger narrative about race in this country.
This is the first time Sukari and I have spoken about the statement she provided to the Senate Judiciary Committee in 1991, why she thinks the committee failed to call her to testify about what she witnessed when she worked for Clarence Thomas, and how the exclusion impacted her.
Then, you’ll hear about another historic
#SupremeCourt
nomination, one that took place over 30 years ago, for Clarence Thomas. It changed the course of my life—but in this episode you'll hear it from Sukari Hardnett's perspective.
