How The Diatribe's mission to inspire, educate, and disrupt is positive impacting West Michigan(07-05-25)

In this episode, WYCE station manager Phil Tower speaks with Wardell Frazier, Jr., Executive Director of The Diatribe, and J-Lin Tamminga, Director of Education at The Diatribe.

Both Wardell and J-Lin spoke about the Diatribe Vision: Creating art that is informative because we know that some of the most complex topics can be digested easier through an artistic lens, and that some of the most complex verbiage can be redivided through the creative gaze; words like racism, justice, and even liberation.

A critical and exciting piece of the future for The Diatribe is The Emory Arts & Culture Hub.  In a real sense, it is “a dream home” for the Diatribe leadership.

With the Emory Arts & Culture Hub, the Diatribe plans a new model for redevelopment that they hope will serve as an example for inclusive community and economic growth, potentially influencing more of this type of work in communities across the country.
