In Ep. 59: "Boring-Ass Racist White Church," we’re joined by actor, writer, and podcast host LaNisa Renee Frederick for a bold and unfiltered conversation about her upbringing in the Worldwide Church of God—a high-control religious movement masquerading as Christianity. LaNisa shares what it was like growing up in what she unapologetically calls a “boring-ass racist white church,” and how those experiences shaped her identity, her faith, and her voice as a creator.
We also talk about her latest project, Black & CULTivated—a podcast centering the stories of Black and Brown cult survivors, bringing much-needed representation to the conversation around spiritual abuse and religious trauma. With honesty, humor, and sharp insight, LaNisa breaks down the intersections of race, control, and healing.
