Ep. 9 Freed Power; Origins of a Radical Black Girl

  • Summary

  • Discussing My early lessons on the power of people, collective liberation, and our upcoming election.

    As a kid, I heard stories about my maternal grandmother hosting friends like Dick Gregory and other civil rights leaders in her home when they were in town. Or about how my mother was involved in the Black Panther Party when she was a teen/ young adult in the 60s & 70s. I remember growing up with a poster of Malcom X on the wall by our front door. The image of him looking out the window with a shot gun.

    My first protest was at age 11 for a grocery store in a neighborhood that I now know as a food desert. This continued to and through college, and beyond. In this next episode of the podcast I talk about these early lessons of our power to collectively push for a different future. I also discuss reconciling the feelings of my desire for the liberation of ALL people and the potential of our first Black Woman President.
