3 min - Bonus Episode: Ordinary Equality, Roe v. WadeIn light of what's happening at the Supreme Court, we wanted to bring you another show from Wonder Media Network called Ordinary Equality. If you are long-time listener of the pod, you know how overturning Roe would significantly impact women of color, triggering arcane abortion laws in states where women of color are more likely to live, and making it even more difficult to access other types of safe, affordable reproductive healthcare. This episode of Ordinary Equality examines the landmark Roe v. Wade case–how it came to be, what exactly it established, and where it’s vulnerable to legal attacks.

About The Brown Girls Guide: Politics, Pop Culture, and the Power of Us
The Brown Girls Guide is more than a podcast — it’s a movement. Created for women of color who want to stay informed, inspired, and connected, this show dives into the conversations that shape our lives. From breaking down politics and current events to exploring pop culture and lifestyle, we hold space for the issues and joys that matter most to us.
Every episode brings a mix of candid commentary and powerful interviews with voices you’ll love — from trailblazers and thought leaders to everyday women whose stories remind us of our strength. If you’ve ever wanted to get politically involved and had no idea where to start, this is where you meet the women who did it, and hear the parts they don’t put in the press release.
Our mission is simple: to celebrate the richness of our perspectives while keeping it real, fun, and unapologetically us. Because the world looks different through our lens — and it’s time everyone sees it.
So whether you’re tuning in for insight, inspiration, or just a laugh with your new favorite guide, you’re in the right place.
Welcome to The Brown Girls Guide.
Produced by The BGG Media. Hosted and executive produced by A'shanti F. Gholar, Founder of The Brown Girls Guide.
