Who Taught
You That?
A thoughtful podcast about the beliefs we inherit, and the systems that handed them to us. Every episode takes one idea we were taught to accept as true, and asks the question underneath it.

What if the beliefs you inherited were never truly your own?
Who Taught You That? explores the decolonization of the mind through conversations about history, identity, faith, language, education, culture, race, and freedom.
Most of us were taught to treat certain ideas as simply true. That some ways of knowing are rigorous and others are “cultural.” That some languages sound intelligent and others sound broken. That some histories deserve to be remembered while others are folklore. Those categories were not discovered. They were assigned: by schools, churches, universities, and whoever controlled the curriculum.
Each episode examines one of those inherited beliefs, asks who benefited from it, and looks at what it costs to keep carrying it. The conversation is honest but never an attack not on faith, not on family, not on anyone still inside a system they did not design. Questioning does not always destroy what we value. Sometimes it removes the fear from it.
Because before accepting an idea as truth, there is one question worth asking first: who taught you that?
