A new podcast from WITF aims to reach an underserved audience by putting a spotlight on the experiences of people of color living in midstate Pennsylvania.
The Harrisburg station launched The Melanin Report Sept. 4. In three episodes each week, host Marquis Lupton covers top headlines and leads interviews and discussions about successes and challenges encountered by the local Black, Indigenous and People of Color community. Guests include experts, community leaders and representatives of local organizations.
The Melanin Report aims to give listeners “their news in their vernacular,” Lupton said. “It goes such a long way to hear that news anchor speak just like you.”
