Back in February, Homegoings hosted a live event at Vermont Public studios that featured a conversation with sexologist Tyomi Morgan in front of a live audience. In this episode, we share highlights from that night and dig right into that tricky space where attraction meets fetishization, racial curiosity turns into racism, and how to overcome societal tropes, barriers and nasty stereotypes associated with race that can sometimes keep us from loving one another — better.

Homegoings is a production of Vermont Public. Follow the show here.

This episode was hosted and reported by Myra Flynn. Our producer/director is Mike Dunn and Aaron Edwards is our story editor. Myra composed the theme music with other music by Blue Dot Sessions. Kaylee Mumford is the graphic artist behind this episode’s Homegoings artist portrait.
