Listeners, this week we have an episode takeover with Anna DeShawn.
Anna, pronouns anything respectful, is a Chicago-born social entrepreneur who builds streaming platforms which center & celebrate BIPOC & QTPOC creatives. Media has always been her passion and in 2009 she turned that passion into a reality when she founded E3 Radio, an online radio station playing Queer music & reporting on Queer news with an intersectional lens. Most recently, she co-founded The Qube, a podcast production company and curated platform to discover the best music & podcasts by BIPOC & QTPOC creatives. Anna is an award-winning podcaster determined to ride media into its next era by utilizing digital media streams to tell the stories and play the music that deserves to be heard.
In no particular order I’m also a daughter, wife, sister, and friend who loves cooking and running.
Favorite Quote: “First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.” –Gandhi
Did you know? Anna has been in love with Robin Roberts her entire life. Getting the opportunity to meet her might just prove Anna speechless.
