***A heads up: This episode contains strong language, unbleeped swearing and explicit adult content***

In our fourth and final episode of the special series “Stereo-anti-types,” we tackle one of the most “biggest” stereotypes out there about the Black body today: the myth of the big Black penis. Host Myra Flynn speaks with Black men, including a porn star, about how this myth affects their lives and their profession, and a female sexologist who knows a lot about the origin of this stereotype that plagues Black men. A heads up that this episode is explicit, and maybe even hard to listen to. But here on Homegoings we believe most of the important stuff usually is.

Homegoings is a production of Vermont Public. Follow season 2 here.

This episode was mixed and reported by Myra Flynn with help from associate producer James Stewart. Jane Lindholm edited this episode with help from James Stewart. Myra Flynn composed our theme music. All other music by Jay Green, King Noire and Blue Dot sessions. Zoe McDonald is the graphic artist behind this episode’s Homegoings artist portrait.
