Love can be romantic, platonic, familial, even collegial. It is often unconditional, but where Black love resides it is always political. In this episode, we discuss the spectrum of love's manifestation across Black relationships. Loving oneself or others while Black is an act of rebellion for those whose bodies are racially marked and held outside of society, and at times deemed unloveable. 

Hosts Andrea Baldwin and Trichia Cadette invite Gerlyn Murrell and Kimberly Williams into conversation about the spectrum of Black love. Gerlyn Murrell is a doctoral candidate in the department of Sociology at Virginia Tech. Kimberly Williams is a University of Florida Graduate candidate in English.
