Deaunte Damper, the charismatic host of "We Live In Color" on Converge Media, has been a fantastic guest host on "Back2Besa" while Besa Gordon takes a well-deserved break. Damper has described his time on the show as "one of the best experiences of my life," and his passion for sharing uplifting stories from the community has shone through in every episode.
From highlighting Juneteenth and Pride celebrations to uplifting local businesses and spotlighting talented young artists, Damper has continued Back2Besa's mission of celebrating the strength and beauty of the PNW community. He has brought his own unique flair to the show, and his final episode as guest host on Saturday, July 20th, promises to be memorable.

As Besa Gordon continues her healing journey, the Back2Besa torch will be passed to another very capable guest host, TraeAnna Holiday. Holiday, a familiar face within the Converge Media family and the host of her own show "The Day with Trae", will take the reins for the next four weeks, starting on July 27th.
Fans of Back2Besa can rest assured that Besa will be back on set soon. In the meantime, the show will be in good hands with TraeAnna Holiday as guest host followed by Takiyah Ward and Curtis Delgardo II.
Besa Gordon joined Deaunte Damper as he recorded his final episode of Back2Besa earlier this week.
We are deeply grateful for your continued support of Besa Gordon and Converge Media during this transition. We continue to wish Besa Gordon all the best in her recovery and can't wait to see her back on Back2Besa soon! Don't miss Deaunte Damper's final episode as guest host on Saturday, and be sure to tune in for TraeAnna Holiday's debut on July 27th.
