  • White Folks Clutching Their Pearls
    Please join us Sunday as we discuss the political climate surrounding Black Liberation and White allies support.  There is so much to go over, therefore, we will NOT be taking calls.
    YOU do NOT have the right to tell us WHO and WHAT to support.
    YOU should not use your support as a bargaining chip in return for perceived 'good behavior.'
    YOU do NOT have the right to tell us to stop pressuring politicians to put OUR needs on their political platform.
    Your way has not worked. Why should we continue to employ tactics that yield no results.?
    YOU do NOT have the right to determine what is best for US.
    You either support us or you don't.
    Check your privilege.
    And much more.

  • Dear White Allies... Pt. 2
    Please join us Sunday 10AM CST as we discuss white allies, their role(s), inclusion vs. accommodation, having our own safe spaces, eurocentrism, and much more.
    We, as a nation, need to confront and address a number of issues. The black community needs allies, not enemies, or white people replacing us.  The erasure of black women by eurocentrism and black men needs to be addressed and rectified.  Black women and girls matter.
    Additionally, the massacre in Charleston has caught the attention of the world.  We must not allow the conversation to be derailed by focusing it on the Confederate flag.  The conversation should focus on racism, white supremacy, institutionalized racism, education, incarceration, economic viability, and more.
    We will take some time at the beginning of the podcast to talk about Rhodesia and our role in a country now known as Zimbabwe.

    Rachel Dolezal's masquerade is another example of why we, as a nation, need to confront and address a number of issues. The black community needs allies, not enemies, or white people replacing us.  The erasure of black women by eurocentrism and black men needs to be addressed and rectified.  Black women and girls matter.
