Dear Soft Black Woman

Karla Mendoza dabbles in visual arts, writing, teaching, bookbinding, photography and recently she has taken up podcasting – El Cafecito with Karla (Spotify /Apple Podcast) – where she interviews her friends as they explore the themes of loving Jesus, choosing hope, and finding liberation together. She spends most of her life in the midst of intersectionality as a Jesus loving Afro-Indigenous Peruvian woman, undocumented immigrant and a fat woman. Antiracist discipleship is the heartbeat of her writing and speaking. She has spent the last few years healing and reclaiming her story as her own after spending the majority of her life in white evangelical spaces. You can follow her on IG: @DearKarla 

Andrea Price (pronounced ahn-DREE-uh) is an eclectic artist, facilitator, art administrator, and entrepreneur. She is passionate about social justice and making space for compassion, peace, and joy. Price is also the owner of Andrea & Her Art and co-owner of Healing Conversations, two businesses that mirror her passions. As a visual artist, Andrea Price is hopeful and fighting for a world of equity, through her art, that acknowledges and celebrates the vast amount of cultural diversity that God intentionally created.

Robert Monson is a writer, author, theologian, podcaster, seminarian and proud Black man who is committed to liberation and rest.

So far on this podcast, I’ve talked to those who are claiming and reclaiming the identity of the Soft Black woman. I also hope to bring on guests who have inspired my journey, one way or another, to speak into this conversation. Robert Monson is one of those folks, who I met through Twitter, living the soft life as a black man.

Robert co-hosts a podcast called 3 Black Men and recently started a new podcast Black Coffee and Theology.
