"<p>A Kansas-city specific podcast, <em>The Filter</em> takes a deep dive into the under-reported stories of their community and the cultural weight of being on the margins. Hosts Ieshia Downton and Vicky Diaz-Camacho are young journalists who make the argument that ""minority issues"" should actually be considered global phenomenons.</p><p>The topics they discuss range from the stigma of black women wearing their hair naturally, to loneliness in COVID-19, and ways to cope with emotional stress. Their episodes may be centered on culture in Kansas City, but the significance of sharing human stories on a mass scale remains the same. </p>"
