In this episode, we invite the lovely Tammy Tuesdayz on the table. We explore her perspective on issues relating to black artists and their role in social change in the black community. Do black artists have a responsibility to influence change through their art? Does their contribution to the culture challenge or maintain the status quo? Listen as we discuss these questions and much more with Montreal's very own Tammy T!

In this episode, we welcome a special guest, Mr.Rito Joseph. A black-millennial man from Montreal who has taken it upon himself to not only inform himself about black history but also share it with the world. Throughout this conversation, he shares his life trajectory and how it led him to his work. We discuss the ins and outs of being a black man in western societies and the importance of cultural identity. What can the black man do to cultivate a stronger sense of self? Can knowing and being connected to our history help us get there?

In this episode, the hosts talk about cancel culture. They explore its origins, how itis used, and whether or not its use is beneficial for the black community? They also discuss the heaviness of the current social climate. Recent demonstrations from the 50 states of the US and 18 countries worldwide have made this one of the biggest human rights movements in history. This has led to much needed social awakening. However, the sudden attention on the effects of racism and anti-blackness is leading to interpersonal conflicts. What do you do if someone does not understand your plight as a black person? Do you CANCEL them? What if it is a person you love? Is there such a thing as agreeing to disagree on the topic of racism?
