Today’s guest is Blair Imani - a historian, educator, and the brilliant mind behind the viral web series Smarter In Seconds. She’s also an LA Times bestselling author of Read This to Get Smarter, and if you’ve ever seen her content, you know she has a one-of-a-kind way of breaking down big, complex ideas with clarity, color, and compassion. The New York Times called her delivery “perky” and “quirky,” but her scholarship runs deep, covering everything from race and gender studies to intersectionality and U.S. history.
In this episode, Blair opens up about:
- Embracing her bisexual identity and the beauty of self-discovery
- Navigating faith as a proud Muslim woman
- How intersectionality shapes the way we live, learn, and connect
- Reshaping education and activism through storytelling
- Living with purpose and impact while staying true to who you are
