In an effort to show solidarity with the fight against racial injustice, “How Did I Get This Far?” has paused its regularly scheduled content to research and release this special episode. Host Amanda Ogen shares a conversation with one of her childhood role models, Carol Roberts Solomon. The two cover hardships of growing up black, resources to continue learning and taking action, and ways to embrace and love the skin you\'re in.

This episode is only the start of the conversation. Below are some resources mentioned throughout the episode:
