Black Voices of Survivor: A Conversation with Julia Carter plus J’Tia Hart on the Survivor Anti-Racism Petition
To elevate the Black voices in the Survivor community, Rob Cesternino talks with Survivor: Edge of Extinction castaway Julia Carter in the second conversation of our new series “Black Voices of Survivor.” Before Rob’s discussion with Julia, Rob speaks with Survivor: Cagayan castaway Dr. J’Tia Hart to discuss the Survivor Anti-Racism Petition that she and some of her fellow castaways have started.
In this series, Rob will speak with various African-American members of the Survivor community to teach the audience more about their experiences playing Survivor as an African-American and the unique challenges they faced on and off the island. They will also be focusing on their life experiences as an African-American and tell the listeners how we all can be allies to the Black community given all the unrest going on in the world currently.
