The Porshanality Podcast

Welcome back to another episode of Amplify Humanity Podcast. Please do us a favor by rating and subscribing to this podcast.

On this episode, we're excited to center Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) history and podcasts this week! Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month is observed during the month of May, as it recognizes the contributions, culture, and influence of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders to the history, culture, and achievements of the United States. May was chosen specifically because it commemorates the migration of the first immigrants from Japan to the United States on May 7, 1843, and because it honors the completion of the transcontinental railroad by over 20,0000 Asian immigrants on May 10, 1869. Moreover, the first Asian immigrants arrived in the U.S. in 1587 when Filipinos first began migrating to California. Immigrants continued to come from the Asian continent and the Pacific Islands through 1920. Happy Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage month!

Welcome to Amplify Humanity Live with Porsha. Porsha reminded us to rely on ourselves and to trust our intuition in It’s A Vibe. She mentioned a series of podcasts in What’s Popping In Pop Culture, including God Moms Bad Choices, One Bad Mother, Because Mom Said So, Mommy Needs A Break, Mommy Confessions, And Our Body Politic Podcast. Motherhood is complex as we amplified the fact that it can be complicated for some on this Mother’s Day Week. And finally, she has a message for the president in Tell The President I Said!

Welcome to Amplify Humanity Live! Tonight Porsha asks us the question: where do we need to apply pressure for resistance? Where and how are we placing limitations on our own voices?
Porsha also shares a new read from Truth’s Table Podcast and amplifies the work of Black Millennial Cafe. She also reminds us that we let Meg the Stallion down and that we need to tell the president a few things… all this and more on this episode.
