Crowning Podcast

So this is our first virtual podcast featuring all three siblings. We open up talking about our new situations and our developements in either education or career. After that we have a conversation centered around the now infamous tik tok that was later posted to twitter. It featured a women who's a therapist by trade, urging black men to go to therapy to develop the vocabulary and the awareness to effectively communicate with their partners. Twitter did what twitter does and shortly after she was fired from her place of work. We talk about our thoughts on her words and a larger conversation about discourse relating to Black men and therapy. Enjoy!

The tik tok:

This episode is a little old if you couldn't tell but in this one we are discussing comments made by Tichina Arnolds. She asked twitter "What can we as Black Women in America do, to stop aiding in the emasculation of Black men in America?" So we take the time to ask ourselves what is masculinity, what is considered emasculating, and why black women? Enjoy!

First and foremost, we would like to apologize for all of the ignorant takes spewed about Nigeria, the Pan-African movement, and to all children of the diaspora. This was a fun "what if" that started with us debating how the Pan-African ideology of African-Americans moving to the African countries they originated from would be implemented today. Enjoy!
