Our Current Media Ecosystem is Trash - Darvio Morrow

Walk-Ins Welcome #376

Media maven Darvio Morrow shares his story—from launching a record label at 16 and sleeping on studio floors to keep his dream alive, to growing up amid Cleveland’s economic decline, gunshots next door, and a family legacy tied to a great-grandfather raised by a former slave. He and Bridget discuss his nuanced take on reparations, why today’s media ecosystem is trash, white paternalism as a cousin to white supremacy, and our desensitization to global atrocities like the ongoing crisis in Iran. They cover why it’s difficult to find straight news that informs you these days, how humans were not meant to take this much information in from all these different sources at all times, how we still haven’t dealt with the after effects from COVID yet, why we need a functioning middle class, and the truth about starting from zero.
