Popular Reviews of Combing The Roots

Ally Henny has taken on an ambitious goal with her podcast Combing the Roots: to provide an in-depth look at issues surrounding racism, justice, & racial healing from a Black woman’s perspective. And she has proved to more than up to the task. Ally Henny is a writer, activist, minister, & theologian and brings a vibrant passion and thoughtfulness together to this show. I believe I first heard her on Pass the Mic (if you don’t subscribe to PtM, do that after you subscribe to Combing the Roots) and when they launched her own show, Combing the Roots, there was no hesitation to subscribe. I am glad I listen to her. This show is like a mirror that shows me ugliness in our society that I’d been blind to. But, it doesn’t simply open my eyes to racial issues and ideas of White supremacy- it also challenges me and empowers me to push back against injustice.
