Tee-Ta Walker and Tiffany Scott discuss how the media creates separation by calling out differences in black (or any non-white cultures) regarding crime, health, and generally anything deemed unacceptable or controversial to the norm. When white people are leading the foray in acts of crime or socially harmful acts, why are they not called out?

Tee-Ta and Tiffany, referring to an article in The Root, discuss divisiveness, responsibility, accountability, and how to close the racial divide.

Tee-Ta and Tiffany took a holiday. Why? Because when you do work that is more avoided than celebrated, it can get exhausting.

Coming off of their holiday, Tee-Ta & Tiffany had their monthly conversation with Pamela Davis and Erin Burch.

They continued to chat about Black women, who seem to create a radical shift in society; yet, still denied and criticized EVEN when others are capitalizing on the change. This time it is mental illness.

Here are a few articles revealing how Simone Biles's stance on Mental Health has now taken a journey of its own.
