Kahlief Adams (Spawn on Me) and Riana Manuel (What's Good Games, Xbox) join the 1099 to discuss how code-switching impacts the video game industry, particularly when we're all working from home because of COVID-19. Hear Joe, Kahlief, and Riana talk about struggling to find comfortable niches in the workplace when there are so few black people to be found in games and tech jobs, how letting coworkers and bosses see into their home lives on Zoom calls changes the way we live our formerly private lives, and what games depict the realities of code-switching with some accuracy.
