The Kansas City Defender podcast is officially back! It has been over a year since we've published our first episode, featuring leader of KC Tenants Jenay Manley. In that time, The Defender has established itself as a force to be reckoned with in the world of news. We've broken national stories and gained critical acclaim from the likes of Harvard University and Mizzou's #1 ranked Reynolds Journalism Institute. Despite our major growth and national recognition, we are clear about our Black radical roots.
