All too often we presume “diversity” to be inextricably linked to skin color and it couldn’t be further from the truth. What we “look” like makes up very little of “who” we are; how we think and the issues of greatest importance to us. Diversity is acknowledgment, and celebration of the differences which make Los Angeles strong. It is inclusion irrespective of gender, sexual orientation or country of origin. It is holding up a mirror of truth to ourselves and loving our disparate origins, stories, languages and ethnicities.
DiverseLA is about Los Angeles hearing voices and viewpoints less often heard. We as Angelenos don’t look, think or even vote alike…so why should we sound alike?
We are going to make you laugh, definitely make you uncomfortable…but most importantly, force you to think about the issues in ways you may have never considered.
Los Angeles is infinitely and fabulously diverse. So too should be its radio. Join us.
