"Blackness?"


Blackness is a podcast series that dives deep into the diverse, multifaceted experiences of Black individuals and communities, exploring the stories that challenge stereotypes and redefine what it means to be Black in today’s world. Hosted by Zion Kanyana, the series amplifies voices that reflect the resilience, creativity, and power of Black identity, while addressing the social, cultural, and systemic barriers that often shape those experiences.


Each episode features personal stories and conversations with trailblazers, advocates, and everyday people who are breaking barriers, rewriting narratives, and showing that Blackness is not a monolith—it’s expansive, dynamic, and unapologetically authentic. Whether you’re here to learn, reflect, or simply celebrate Black identity in all its forms, this podcast offers a space to grow and connect.

    • Hustle Speaks Louder than Words: Shannon Forman II

      Hustle Speaks Louder than Words: Shannon Forman II
      May 28 2025

      This week on “Blackness?” I sit down with Shannon Forman, a former ASU football player, coach, and founder of TFLDL Training, to discuss what it truly means to persevere when the lights fade and the crowd is gone.

      Shannon shares how moving from Louisiana to Arizona brought challenges he didn’t expect and growth he didn’t know he needed. He reflects on his time as a player, the shift into coaching, and how building his own football development program became a way to give back and build forward.

      This episode is about grit. It’s about growth. And it’s about the work we do when no one’s watching, the kind of hustle that speaks for us louder than any words ever could.

It’s a conversation about self-definition, staying grounded, and choosing authenticity every time.
