  • "Sangria Sermon- "Dragged in the Spirit"
    My loves, nothing fun happened this week! So I share a little about my reading with a medium (and how he dragged me in the Spirit). I also share my thoughts on the Derrick Chauvin verdict, my outrage on the murder of Ma'Kaiah Bryant... and how necessary it is to unlearn "respectability" and the need for perfect black victims...
    If I got dragged, I'm dragging ya'll too.

  • "Where Mental Illness goes to Hide"- The Black church, women and mental health w/ Pastor Lynnette Daughtry Barrett

    my loves, It's time for a very special episode...*cue 'after school special' music*.  Da'naia Jackson's videos spurred me to invite my friend and faith Leader Lynnette Daughtry Barrett to join me this week. Together we take a look about the Church and how women are socialized, how being 'unwell' easily hides in religious spaces and the difference between living by faith and hiding behind faith... 

    I tried not to cuss so the saints could listen...
