New podcast spotlights Black women in Cleveland

• The podcast launches today, with new episodes arriving every other week, featuring interviews by Ideastream's Marlene Harris-Taylor.

Context: The series is an extension of research that Enlightened Solutions conducted for Project Noir, a survey of more than 450 Black women in Northeast Ohio.

• The survey was a response to a 2020 report from Bloomberg CityLab, which found that Cleveland was the nation's least livable city for Black women.

Of note: The series arrives intentionally at the cusp of February and March — Black History Month and Women's History Month, respectively.
