KMOJ's Community Viewpoint

What We Don’t Say Out Loud is a culturally rooted conversation about the unspoken experiences shaping our mental and emotional wellness—from family secrets and generational survival to relationships, parenting, grief, money, masculinity, Black womanhood, faith, friendship, aging, success, and the pressure to always appear strong.

This isn’t just a podcast about mental health. It’s about the culture behind our mental health.

Why did some of us learn to call trauma “just life”? Why was survival celebrated while vulnerability was questioned? What behaviors have we normalized simply because “that’s how we grew up”? And what are we carrying today that was never ours to carry?

Each episode takes something we usually whisper about and puts it directly on the table.

Because some things don’t change until somebody finally says them out loud.

What is KMOJ's Community Viewpoint?

“KMOJ’s Community Viewpoint” is a podcast series created by KMOJ-89.9 FM Radio “The People’s Station”. These conversations explore issues and perspectives critical to the health and well-being of all members of the communities of color we serve.
Since first going “on the air” in 1976, KMOJ-89.9-FM continues its legacy as the community-oriented station located in Minneapolis, Minnesota airing a predominantly urban adult contemporary format.
“KMOJ’s Community Viewpoint” is one way the station achieves its mission of engaging, supporting and empowering Communities of Color to elevate the way of life of the people of its community and to challenge social and economic disparities, and the persistent consequences of historic racism.
The station call letters, “KMOJ” were inspired by the Swahili word “UMOJA” which means “Unity.” http://kmojfm.com/
