Welcome to the Black At It Family Reunion! In this episode we bring back past guests and see what's been up since they last appeared on the show. We talk with Mone Walker, Natalia Kennedy, Salema Jenkins and Denise Jacques. The pandemic has changed they way we live, so let's see what changes it has made for our Black At It family.  Take a listen, laugh with us, cry with us and be part of the Black At It Fam!

The myth of the Hood: The hood has always been seen as a dark  dismal place inhabited with gangsters and overall ne'er-do-well people. We take a look at the hoods we grew up in and the changes being made through gentrification. We are joined by our lovely and special guest Denise Jacques who shares her views on what the hood means to her and where the housing market stands in relation to our people.

We love everything  Black but are there things we should stop doing? In this episode Louis and Hollee speak on things the culture could probably do without. We dive into  Black units of measurement, Black Moms, and so much more. Listen in, see if you agree, and let's aim to do better.

Cowboys represent! No, not the NFL team. We mean real life cowboys--the O.G.s like Nat Love and Bill Pickett. But if you let America tell it, you'd think cowboys were white, only. Do you know the true meaning behind and origin of the American cowboy? Like almost everything American, it started with us.

In this episode we have the pleasure of speaking with educator Salema Jenkins who made the tough decision to transition away from teaching after dedicating 13 years to the classroom. She shares insights on the importance of being a Black teacher and the struggles of teaching, especially after coming back to in-person learning post pandemic. Education never came easy for Black folks as history shows that we have had to fight and continue to fight to get a better education.  Strides are being made but there is so much more to be done. 

Boy we had a time last week! From the week's most current events, to Tubi, to the Superbowl and our favorite commercials; and edible arrangements, dating, and Black love movies--we needed a moment to unpack on this adventure in being Black at it.

Kicking off Season 4 during the greatest month of the year with some new-new: new life updates, new cohost, and more! From Black History Week to Black History Month to Black History ALL DAY ALL YEAR, listen in as we chat about our favorite Black History facts, what's been going down in our business and other Black people's business (aka the Grammys) and hand a few "Black Flowers" to those who deserve it, especially during this time of year.

Philly-based actress/comedian extraordinaire, Katrina Braxton, joins us as we discuss the state of comedy today and dive into the roots of Black hair. From African royalty to perms to the natural hair movement, listen in as we talk about this hair-raising and often contentious topic that just may leave you speechless.

In Episode 2 of Season 1, we discussed camping and why Black folks just don't do it. In this episode Louis decides to take on the challenge and is met with some interesting surprises. Could camping be our thing after all?

Between a black cat crossing your path, or splitting the pole, or an itchy palm, Black folks are the kings and queens of superstitions. On this special birthday episode we dive into the world of Black Superstitions. Is it really real, or are we just doing the most?
