MK284: Snatching Crowns and Taking Names (The Insurrection, Chocolate City, Wonder Woman, Gen X, Vaccine News, Bridgerton, Between the World and Me)

1 hour 18 minutes

Which generation is here to snatch the crown of Greatest? Have you been sleeping easier because a certain somebody has been kicked off all social media platforms? We have a battle cry for ally’s on how to really show up. Bridgerton has us all kinds of hot and bothered. Wonder Woman debuted on our TV screens! We enjoyed it- but we have notes. And questions. In the Main Korner we go back in time, TWICE, in one segment to Chocolate City AKA DC- which was a burgeoning Black Metropolis who’s rich history in Black excellence dates all the way back to the 1800s and an argument for state hood- NOW! Especially in light of the recent coup’d. Then Dr. Nnekay (she/her) is here to tell us all the facts we need to know about the Vaccine. Stick around to the end for our newest segment, Rejuvenation Station, where Nnekay gives us her rejuvenation/replenishing tip of the week.
