#151 For Us, By Us, Just Us

Queen & J. are two womanist race nerds talking liberation, politics, and pop-culture and over tea. Drink up! Can you have a safe space for Black folks when white folks are in the room? We recap #PodinLiveNYC podcast meetup, we ask what happened to Universal Fancon and give a quick activist update. This week’s hot list: Updated pronouns, #PodinLiveNYC, Queen is in love, J. is rejecting white supremacy at work again, rocks, oils and clear energy, what the heck happened to Universal Fancon? Was it a Fancon-con? See what I did there:) Creating safe spaces for marginalized folks, what happens when our Black owned brands let us down, hanging Black women out to dry, and Activist Alejandra Pablo is released!
