Tea with Queen and J. is a podcast started by two womanist race nerds from the Bronx discussing matters of gender equality, race, social justice and pop culture over tea. Their voices are unique in podcasting and they have helped to nurture a cyber learning community on these issues. It would be an amazing opportunity for them to visit The White House and experience South By South Lawn.

THANK YOU!
