As the daughter of Haitian immigrants growing up in a predominately white suburban town, Dabney Brice knows what it’s like to be overlooked and undervalued. Her mission? To make everyone feel valued and included - to let every voice and story be seen and heard. The Uplift with Dabney Brice is a podcast where all of us, especially those who are underrepresented and misrepresented across all facets of our society, can let our stories shine. Episodes include conversations with guests to educate us on a variety of diverse communities, current events, history, culture, and topics. Let’s journey together to step outside our comfort zones, uplift each other and make the world a little bit better along the way.
