What's good y'all!? Finally made it to episode 10 and I'm feeling real good about this milestone. Throughout this episode I hit you with 10 of the best feelings in the world. On the other end of the spectrum, I'm also thinking about the commodification of Black culture as it's been weighing on my brain heavily lately. Plus I touch on digital baggage and one of the infinite reasons why men are trash.
On the subject of commodification of Black culture, I mention Dr. Brandi Thompson Summers. Here's the link to her profile on VCU as well as some of her work. The two articles I mentioned are published in journals that are unfortunately behind a paywall.
