Power to the people yall! In this episode we’re talking activism, Black motherhood and movements. What is activism? Do movements make room for mothers beyond their grief? We reveal how our parents’ activism impacted us and the impact of patriarchy on organizing. But first Crystal and Nekisha discuss what’s blocking their creativity and Thea tries to convince them to live that Sugar Free life. S/o to Therapy for Black Girls, Sweet Potato Soul, Hey Girl Podcast and the Girl Scouts who get some love in our What’s Good Segment. Plus we’ve got #CollectionPlateCauses (Black Girls Code, Black Girl Mixtape, and Project HER). We also discuss the importance of the booty skirt and as always we close out the show with #BlackMamaSay #QuietAsItsKept
