Point of Hue

Ateira and Salimah discuss "the butters", racial slurs, and a preview of Black Panther. Featuring #Misterupter Nicholas Mitchell from the Greenmount West Community Center.

Ateira and Salimah discuss how to be an effective ally for the Black community, Black Lives Matter week of action, mental illness in the criminal justice system, and whether Indians are truly better at math. They also allude to Black Panther, so stay tuned to hear their thoughts as women of color after taking a trip to Wakanda!

Have you ever had one of those moments when you asked yourself, "Is This Real Life?" So have we! That's why, in Episode 4 of Point of Hue, we introduce our new #ITRL segment, as well as an #Unscripted segment where Salimah and Ateira as each other the hard questions, for the first time, on air! Also, check out our interview with #DisruptHer Katie Moy Santos of BARS, in which we discuss body shaming, activism, and what it means to be "Asian enough".

Ateira and Salimah engage in an honest no holds barred conversation with the executive leadership of Not Without Black Women (NWBW) a racial and gender justice organization based in Baltimore, MD. NWBW shares how they are unapologetic about centering black women's issues in the political sphere, why black mothers are important, and how other women of color can support black women.

Not Without Black Women is a social and political movement of women that aims to uplift our voices through self-expression, dialogue, and sisterhood.

Ateira and Salimah discuss New Year's resolutions women of color must keep in 2018. Salimah takes a stand against mansplaining, manspreading, and transmisogyny while Ateira shares her thoughts on communities of color attaining collective wealth, competition between women of color in the workplace, and why the term "think like a man" is sexist.

Salimah talks about her experiences as an immigrant, wanting to assimilate into American culture, compared to Ateira's experience trying to find a representation of herself as an African-American woman, within American culture. Featured DisruptHer: Dena Robinson, Racial Equity Trainer. Salimah wrote a poem about the uselessness of trying to fit into one ideal of what it means to belong to a place.
