On this episode, we begin by mourning the fall of our champion Deontay Wilder on this last week of Black History Month.  We then give a brief recap NAACP image awards and discuss the empowering lesson that can be learned from being in spaces like that. Next, it was important to acknowledge Kobe and GiGi's memorial service and to thank Vanessa Bryant for sharing that moment with us. By using Nipsey's mother's words to help us heal from the losses, we begin to think about legacy and lessons that we can learn from both Nip and Kobe.  Are you trying to make it out or make it with? We question what does it mean to Buy Back the Block? Finally, we spotlight Matthew Cherry for his work on "Hair Love" & discuss the natural hair movement, "good hair", and the politics of Black women's hair.
