We can't pretend that the biggest trial in awhile isn't happening in our city. This is not a recap of the trial, but a check in. Our thoughts and feelings about this traumatic experience.

This may not be applicable to you, but then again...maybe it is!
This is the second part to our conversation about White American Theater spaces, and the problematic practices within the community.
If you are wildly confused, feel free to watch our live on Emily's instagram (@emilydmads), or check out the audio on our patreon. 
Even if you aren't in theater, there may be a few tips and tricks in here to help you make decisions on how you choose to engage with BIMPOC folx about their experiences.

Ooh this one was fun!

On today's episode we talk about historical (and modern) Black figures that inspire us, move us, and make us want to be the baddies we are meant to be.

It's February (well, almost, if you're listening to this on our Patreon for early access)!

Which means...it's Black History Month! The shortest month of the year, dedicated to talking about the history of the most exploited demographic in our country.

Since we tend to talk about Black history consistently on this podcast, we decided to switch it up and focus on Black love this month!

Starting with, you guessed it, hair love. 

Hair has always been a source of pride, and also degradation for the Black community. 

As mixed race Black women, our hair journey has been a bit rough and confusing. 

Hopefully you can learn from our mistakes, and learn to love your hair sooner rather than later.
