Americans have always been part of our nation’s defense—even when this country didn’t defend them back. We’re honored to use this episode to elevate the voice of our community !

Both are Decorated Veterans & Authors who have fought to rename bases and grant recognition to Black and military families and veterans of color.  Together, we’ll unpack why history matters—how the erasure of Black service doesn’t just rewrite the past, it endangers our future.

It continues in the home — unpaid, unprotected, but undeniably essential. Why does the U.S. military run on the backs of unpaid spouses? And what will it take for this country to finally pay attention? The U.S. military depends on an unpaid, invisible labor force to function. That force is military spouses.
