Mehr Black Beat Podcast

Led by Flossin Media’s CEO & Editor in Chief John Washington, Black Beat takes his unapologetically Black approach to each discussion for a deep dive into the core issues that have historically divided us all.  Our featured converses will include local, regional and national Black news-makers representing views from the hood, to the boardroom and beyond in order to disrupt the traditional “white noise” and bougie rhetoric. Episodes will also feature other Flossin Media/Magazine writers who are well stoked by the fire their leader has ignited.

Amid these challenges, culturally responsive organizations like the Miracles Club provide a vital bridge between harm reduction and recovery, offering solutions tailored to the unique needs of Black communities.Tune in for a compelling discussion that uncovers the roots of trauma and explores actionable solutions to address our addiction crisis.
