This week’s “Podversations” episode features Raquel Willis, executive producer and creator for the Outspoken Podcast Network, iHeartPodcast’s LGBTQIA+ slate, and iHeartPodcasts President, Will Pearson.

Raquel Willis is an award-winning activist, author, and media strategist dedicated to Black transgender liberation who is now focusing on marrying together storytelling and social justice through podcasting with the launch of Outspoken. The Outspoken Podcast Network is meant to elevate the voices of marginalized communities and give the voices back to people in the queer community rather than allowing others to speak on their behalf. As both a producer and a creator herself, Raquel has a lot of insight and experience to share with listeners.
