Posted on August 12, 2018 by Curtis

My pilot The Cleanup Crew placed in the top 10 of the 2018 Launchpad Pilots competition.

La Mezcla by Adrian Burke: Episode 6 with Curtis Retherford

Posted on June 20, 2018 by Curtis

I was a guest on La Mezcla, Adrian’s excellent podcast about mixed-race/multicultural Americans! We talked about the mistaken white liberal belief that racism will disappear when there are more mixed-race people, why Zootopia is racist garbage, and my ambivalence about talking about all of this! It’s very fun. Subscribe to his podcast!
