Sixteen Blue, feat. Winona Ryder and Ashley C. Ford

This week, host Tavi Gevinson talks to actress Winona Ryder about the music and books that inspired her growing up, getting her start in acting, and being bullied in school. Writer Ashley C. Ford answers a question from a listener about the responsibility that comes with writing about people of color in stories. And Rookie contributors Ugochi and Ogechi Egonu teach us how to relearn your mother tongue in another installment of Life Skills. 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.
