Rooted88% Women, Majority Women of Color — So of Course Their Degrees Got DevaluedThe federal government just slashed how much future nurses, counselors, educators, and social workers can borrow — a move that hits women, Black students, and entire communities like a punch to the gut. Paris Alston digs into how a bureaucratic “reclassification” could gut the nursing pipeline, deepen care shortages, and widen racial health disparities. Then we head to Roxbury, where Children’s Services is doing what Washington won’t: creating a free, community‑rooted pathway to grow Black and brown mental health providers. When institutions make care harder to access, the community builds its own solutions.

RootedIvory Tower, Broken Workers: The Academic Labor Crisis No One Wants to OwnGraduate student workers are the engine of American universities—teaching classes, grading papers, running labs—and many are doing it while earning less than a barista’s paycheck. In this episode, Paris Alston exposes the brutal reality behind the prestige: retaliation, homelessness, mental health crises, and a 206‑day strike that made history. We hear from a BU grad worker whose fight for survival turned into a battle against the very institution she served. This isn’t just a labor dispute—it’s a reckoning with who universities value, and who they quietly discard.

And if that weren’t enough flavor, chef Rhonda Perscip brings receipts—and fritters—from a culinary lineage that survived emancipation, migration, and everything in between. This one’s about food, family, and the fire it takes to rewrite a re...

Paris Alston breaks down a night where Bad Bunny used his moment to call out ICE, Kendrick Lamar made history while amplifying lesser-known artists, and the Recording Academy tried once again to prove it understands the culture it’s been catching up to for decades. From shrinking ratings to rising resistance, this episode asks the real question: when the music industry e...

Paris Alston and Executive Producer Karen Marshall talk about timing COVID boosters. They also talk about when — and why — to turn on the heat.
