podcast: tea with trae
What can we learn from the narratives of Generation Z and Millennial Black gig workers and freelancers about power, precarity, and financial efforts to alleviate generations of poverty? What are trends and differences between these workers across diverse social locations and types of gigs in the United States? To explore this research question, I am proposing an auto-ethnography based podcast that serves as a collection of narratives from current Black Generation and Millennials gig workers and freelancers.
