Be Proud of Who You Are, feat. Ibtihaj Muhammad and George Saunders

This week, host Tavi Gevinson talks to Olympian fencer Ibtihaj Muhammad about balancing school with sports, designing modest wear, and being a role model. Author George Saunders answers a question from a listener about trying new things. Plus, contributor Dylan Rupert gives us a Starter Pack on getting into astrology. Each week on the Rookie Podcast, we'll interview people we admire: artists, writers, musicians, filmmakers, activists. We'll also spotlight the work of Rookie readers (now listeners!) and contributors. We'll discuss creativity, pop culture, feminism, activism, self-care, love, friendship, and more. --- Follow us on Twitter and Instagram: @tavitulle @rookiemag @mtvpodcasts  --- Find us at: rookiemag.com  | rookiepodcast.mtv.com  | podcasts.mtv.com

Om Podcasten

On the Rookie Podcast, hosted by Tavi Gevinson, we'll interview people we admire: artists, writers, musicians, filmmakers, activists. We'll also have teenagers ask semi-qualified grownups for advice, feature work by our readers and listeners, share some life skills and pop culture recommendations, and discuss the human experience through the teenage lens. Then, we'll all know how to be people! Or at least not know, together.
