Kisses from Kenya Episode 11: Has the Sky Fallen Before?
Premiered on 13 Apr 2026 Kisses From Kenya
EPISODE 11: Has the Sky Fallen Before?
Is what's happening in America truly unprecedented - or have we been here before? Vuyanzi and Brendan pull back the lens on patterns of injustice, the centering of whiteness in political outrage, and the question of who gets to be shocked. Fair warning: the cynicism is showing, and we're not sorry.
In this episode:
- Whose America Is It Anyway? - ICE, CBP crime statistics, and the headlines making us pause
- Lost in Translation - natural scent, cultural memory, and a story about what it means when your body is the controversy
- Deep Dive - the centering of white reactions to injustice: who says "I can't believe this" and why that matters
- Queer & Black Joy - IShowSpeed and the joy of discovering artists you didn't know you needed
