Have listened to Nicole for years. As POC, I really wish you’d use your voice and platform for the other POC around the world who need their voices lifted and heard. Congo, Palestine, Sudan. The many other genocides. Please Nicole.

please be my friend Nicole

Sometimes I’ll think to myself, wow, I am really missing one of my friends but for some reason I don’t remember which friend. Then I realize I haven’t listened to Nicole’s podcast in a while. Please be my friend Nicole!
