DARE TO FEEL

All The Black Girls Are Activists with EbonyJanice


Listen Later

In today’s episode, for her second time on this podcast, Alexandra speaks with EbonyJanice!

EbonyJanice is a dynamic lecturer, transformational speaker, passionate multi-faith preacher, and creative focused on Decolonizing Authority, Hip Hop Scholarship, Womanism as a Political and Spiritual/Religious tool for Liberation, Blackness as Religion, Dialogue as central to professional development and personal growth, and Women and Gender Studies focused on black girlhood.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • How EbonyJanice went through a period of wanting to walk away from talking about anti-racism, so that she could become a soft woman, and how writing about that and looking into that helped to form her new book All The Black Girls Are Activists: A Fourth Wave Womanist Pursuit of Dreams as Radical Resistance.
  • EbonyJanice’s definition of ‘softness’ and ‘woman softening’ and how that has become such a trendy buzzword and concept on social media, and how it’s not about luxury and living a luxurious life, but about softening the nervous system and deeply taking care of yourself.
  • The importance of citation in today’s world of social media, and how the spark of every idea comes from somewhere, how important it is to credit where our ideas and conversations come from, and how to navigate this with other people.
  • Discussion around black artists and black art, how it is so often erased in our culture, and how that impacted the way EbonyJanice and team designed the style of her book cover.
  • And so much more.
