the get is hosted by Ivy and Rhiana, women of color who are committed to social justice, living, and being free. We are inspired by by LaVerne Cox's concept of "possibility models" and the growing representation of marginalized voices in all forms of social media. The Get is our effort to take up space, to share our voices, and to encourage our listeners to do the same. We're manspreading in the podcast world. Won't you join us?
