Celebrating Us

In this episode join me for an interview with Leona Siaplay. She is an 8th grader and treasurer of CCPA's BSU. Instead of concentrating on the hardships Africans have had to endure for the past centuries we're fixing our gaze on the good of the  continent. Specifically speaking on the small west African country, Liberia.  Enjoy !!

This new series of Celebrating Us we're taking you back to our roots with the cry for justice in #PrayforAfrica. Many countries on the continent have been struggling with threats to their nation and threats to themselves as humans. Though we are exclusively focusing on #EndSARS in Nigeria, #CongoIsBleeding in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and the #RAPENationalEmergency in Liberia I want you guys to look more into more countries.  Links will be down below.

In this episode of Celebrating Us we're focusing on student action and what we can do right now as youth to fight for Breonna Taylor. We are joined by Sarai Parker a sophomore at CCPA and a member of the BSU for some ideas on how we as a student body can use our voices for change. 

 In this episode of Celebrating Us we're focusing on the empowering steps our community and country has taken to raise awareness about the Breonna Taylor case. The goal for this show is to mostly give you, our listeners, hope and seeing all that people are doing to try their hardest to get justice for Breonna. #SAYHERNAME  We will be interviewing Michael Jenkins, teacher at CCPA, as well as Koryeon Vance, a sophomore at CCPA.

In the first episode of Celebrating Us we're focusing on the youth's perspective on the Breonna Taylor case, and how we as black girls are tired of going unnoticed. The goal for this episode is to mostly give you, our listeners, an insight about what's going on with the Breonna case. Hopefully you'll see the situation from a new point of view. #SAYHERNAME
