OTHERtone, the podcast series created by Pharrell, Scott Vener and Fam-Lay, hosts activist and politician Stacey Abrams on its latest episode, "Politics Isn't Just for Politicians."
Abrams was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize on Monday.
In the podcast episode, Pharrell presents her as the fulfillment of the American dream, describing her upbringing in a poor family from Mississippi; how her parents taught her "having nothing is not an excuse for doing nothing"; her role in overcoming a history of voter-suppression efforts in Georgia and its impact on the 2020 U.S. election and subsequent Georgia runoff, which gave effective control of the U.S. Senate to Democrats; and "the disease of racial injustice in our country."
OTHERtone is available on Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, Pocket Casts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music and other podcast platforms.
