In this episode, we reflect on our experiences with other black people as well as our own journey with understanding and embracing our skin color. The conversation focuses on some of the issues within the black community that hamper our growth or cause a great amount friction. This ranges from shifting blame to macro-social structures in cases where it's not applicable, successful black people building their success off the exploitation of the community and so much more!

This 16 Days of Activism we will reflect on an aspect of GBV that is often neglected, the psychological and intergenerational effects of violence against women. The unaddressed trauma stemming from violence against women often results in a cycle of trauma that is passed on to newer generations. In this episode we will reflect on how this trauma may lead to internalized misogyny, aggression towards the survivors’ male children when they become parents and how it affects how women deal with similar trauma experiences by their children. The core function of this episode is to outline the effects of this trauma and how we facilitate healing and preventative measures.

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a great deal of fake news, scepticism, and discussions around the predatory history of the medical industry. In this episode we will discuss the current social media pressure to get vaccinated as well as the hesitancy around it through exploring the past tragic mishaps of the medical industry as well as their history in targeting minorities and how these factors affect public reaction to the coronavirus and the vaccine. We break down the essential information about the virus/vaccine as well as address the concerns of members of the public.
