Intro: “Where is your fight?”
In this episode, I explain where I’ve been and what you can expect this season! Tangible Voices is all about what we can gain from leaning into the stories of others. I hope this upcoming season is enjoyable, informative, and encouraging as I seek to answer an unexpected question through largely untold stories.

5. Something Out Of Nothing / Everything.
Love to all my people. Let’s meet some legends, now. A woman who took in the children of black families who had to work, and ended up raising 40 and holding hundreds more: Mother Hale.
A girl who couldn’t walk in childhood, but within 7 years was running in the Olympic games: Wilma Rudolph.
A girl who saved up pennies to buy a guitar, and went on to write some of America’s most popular folk music: Elizabeth Cotten.
All of these women started with next-to-nothing in their respective lines of work, and through their grit and sense of mission, succeeded, possibly influencing countless Americans along the way. This is: Something Out of Nothing.
As a bonus, I’m adding the unbelievable story of the civil rights giant you may not have heard about: a schoolteacher named Septima Clark. Her story is called “Everything”.
