We speak to Lynette Medley, creator of The Spot, all about how it came to be. It’s billed as the nation’s first menstrual hub and it’s right here in Germantown! We also talk to Philly’s own poet laureate Trapeta Mayson about her Healing Verse Poetry Line, a hotline to provide healing poetry every week. We’ll also learn how she centers supporting mental health services as part of her poet laureate duties. Finally we hear from percussionist Karen Smith about the heartbeat of the drum in another Germantown Voices story.
