As Whitney describes it: “the scoreboard was gone.”Be seen with us on Instagram and Facebook.Guest: Whitney Stafford Host: Miranda WylieProducer: Myrriah GossettMusic by: Solid State Dream Suit

Justin Simien is a writer and storyteller. He wishes his Seen List ended there. Instead, Justin recalls a youth of isolation as “the only black kid” in grade school and his later role as a “blaxpert” in workplaces. Justin and Miranda discuss race in the workplace and how snap judgements limit our ability to see the intricacies of one another’s lives. “People think they know who I am based on the title of my work” explains the creator of “Dear White People,” a movie turned Netflix show. Because of the controversial nature of his work, Justin is perceived as a cultural commentator with answers, but he prefers to been seen as a storyteller with questions."Dear White People" returns to Netflix May 4th, 2018Justin's Spotify PlaylistsSee Justin on Instagram and Facebook.
