  • 21: I Wanna Be A Star w/Rhavynn Drummer (T.P. Studios)

    Being a casting agent is a dope gig, but just like any other job it comes with its share of hurdles. Racial bias, ignorance, and “black on black” crime are as prominent here as they are anywhere. Take a moment and chop it up with While Black and Rhavynn Drummer (Casting Director, Freelance & Tyler Perry Studios) as we talk casting while black.

    If you are interested in what's black about the industry, getting casted or starting a career behind the camera this is a must listen to episode. Rhavynn drops gem after gem and gives her opinion on the good the bad and the ugly. We also discuss those FB posts saying that Tyler Perry will buy you a new house if you just repost this one little post..SPOILER ALERT… STOP DREAMING....

    Parting words ... “Don’t dig up in doubt what you planted in faith”..... Hold on to that nugget from Rhavynn and apply it to every aspect of your life...You're welcome.

  • HIV Has Changed LOVE Hasn't - HIV … While Black
    HIV is no longer a death sentence! It has changed considerably over the last decade and considering we make up a disproportionately large percentage of new HIV diagnoses we should all be better informed.
    Listen to Nona Nunu Thomas talk us through learning her diagnosis, how she is winning at life despite her diagnosis, and how she is enjoying healthy abundant relationships including monogamous unprotected sex while NOT transmitting the virus.
    Do you know what prep is?
    Do you know what pep is?
    Do you know your status?
    U=U undetectable means untransmittable

  • 1 in 5 suffer - Mental Illness ... While Black
    THIS IS A MUST LISTEN TO EPISODE
    How many times growing up did we see our uncle who was always drunk or our aunt who was known to have conversations with herself. How many times did you hear that someone was getting a crazy check and how often were you told just to be careful around that certain family member. Mental illness affects so many of us that it has become normalized. So much that we often don't recognize it and often dont get treatment.
    1 in 5 US adults suffer from mental illness and 1 in 16 suffer from major mental illness. Today we sit down with Dr Harrison Davis to dive into mental illness in the black community. We learn what mental illness can look like and how we can better take care of those around us who suffer from it.  We also learn how to increase our chances of surviving a police interaction when in the middle of a mental health crisis.
    For more information on Mental Illness please visit The national alliance on mental illness (NAMI.ORG)
    Please find more info on Dr Harrison at his website (harrisondavis.com) or on his podcast Two Therapist and a Microphone
