Description


Radiotopia Presents: Red for Revolution is an audio drama centering intergenerational stories of Black women, queer love, and liberation, starring Jordan Hull, Loretta Devine, S. Epatha Merkerson, Rutina Wesley, RenΓ©e Wilson, Alimi Ballard, Jennifer Beals, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Danny Glover, Vanessa E. Williams, adrienne maree brown, Caro GuzmΓ‘n, Don Daniels, and many others.

The heart of the story follows the passionate love affair between jazz singer Lorraine Giovanni and activist Ella Ali. The narrative unfolds through the perspective of Jazmine, an 18-year-old grappling with her queer identity, first crush, and the delicate task of mending her relationship with her homophobic mother. As Jazmine seeks solace and guidance from her grandmother, listeners are transported back to 1971, where two remarkable women from vastly different backgrounds, with opposing political views and living oceans apart, embark on a romance that defies all conventions.

great series. really enjoyed. but no I want the spicy aversion. I'm not happy that you deleted a big portion of it. I think I read somewhere that Judy moved in with you temporarily and I can't remember where. I want to hear everything. so, good documentary series but I think you made a mistake deleting.

The Polybius Conspiracy is great so far! I thought I had a grasp of the story but after episode 5 I'm not sure where it's going. I'm extremely eager to find out!
