Does Clubhouse owe its Black users for the platform’s success? - a podcast by Marketplace

Clubhouse is an invite-only audio app that came out last spring with a very small community of, at the time, mostly Silicon Valley tech-y people in it. Now, the app has 10 million active users on a weekly basis and a valuation of about $1 billion.

Molly speaks with Aniyia Williams, a principal on the responsible technology team at Omidyar Network.
