Greetings PM family!
Podcast Movement has received high praise for our focus on diversity, and we always keep it as a core focus of the event. We pride ourselves on highlighting and welcoming to our platform members of every race, gender, religion and sexual orientation.
We were honored to have one of our top sponsors at our 2016 event in Chicago, Dropbox, participating based on this priority and initiative.
February is Black History Month, and Podcast Movement is excited to celebrate this month by acknowledging a few outstanding and well deserving members of our community who are not only African American, but also create content that inspires and serves society in a meaningful way.
We put together just a small list of ten shows that we appreciate and respect, featuring hosts that are PM family. Please consider checking them out, as they are some of the best podcast going today…period.

Summer is the host of the Unconventional Woman podcast. A recent 5 star review had the following to say about Summer and her show: “I love how Summer highlights real women from all walks of life. These women are smart, confident, and making moves…She’s every girls best girlfriend.”
