Join our group of friends as we delve into the realms of nerd culture, discussing and debating everything from music to mythology. Embracing our authentic melanin-infused selves, we bring a refreshing blend of Afro-futurism, diversity, and inclusion. #podcast #animecommunity #comics #manga #video #anime

In this podcast, we celebrate Blerd culture—a fusion of black and nerd who know no bounds of gender, skin tone, or sexuality. We reject stereotypes and embrace the full range of human expression, giving space for Black individuals to be awkward, brainy, and free in their nerdiness. Tune in to "The Kollective" for a journey that celebrates the beautiful tapestry of Black nerd culture.Copyright TDR Network
