This episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, recognizes Latinx/Hispanic Heritage Month and International Podcast Day. Hendel Leiva, Manager of Podcasts and Audio Initiatives interviews the co-founders of BIPOC Podcast Creators Tangia Al-awaji Estrada and Maribel Quezada-Smith. In this conversation, Tangia and Maribel share their stories of how they became podcasters, the challenges they experienced as women of color in podcasting, and how a Facebook group was the catalyst for founding and launching the BIPOC Podcast Creators in 2021.

Maribel and Tangia talk about the exponential growth of the BIPOC Podcast Creators community, and the wins in representation, access, and partnerships generated across the industry for its members. They discuss the opportunities (speaking and presenting at Podcast Movement, international work in Mexico and Saudi Arabia), and the challenges/ lessons being learned in the greater industry (layoffs due to overcorrection from the big companies, overinvesting in celebrity based podcasts) – and the overall message that forecasts BIPOC podcasting/podcasters are set to be the global majority in the future.
