Onyewuenyi joins me to discuss the trauma around police in schools, the discrimination the education system is designed to uphold, as well as directions that real solutions could develop from.  Everyone has work to do in recognizing white supremacy and how we work with it to uphold the decimation of our children's quality in education.   --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ayisha-elliott/message

The uptick in support, emotionally, financially, and by actual gifts has been welcomed, and overwhelming. We discuss the longevity of this support, is it sustainable support or is it as long as black death is popular. The correction to the podcast mentioned at the end of the episode: .

The impact this has on the black community, and the actions needed to gain trust. It's lively, hilarious and insightful.

Love is love. Black women and white partners require a level of self awareness that dives further into white supremacy than most people are willing to address unless faced with circumstances that require it.  When desire and curiosity make authenticity questionable, you are treading on victimizing.  We talk about black women and white partners and what it takes to bridge that gap, and have truly WHOLE, healthy and authentic relationships  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ayisha-elliott/message
