In this episode of Radical Remembering, we discuss what it takes to find liberation from societal standards of beauty in the Black communities.
I’m joined by Anika Tillery, Founder of Our Writing on the Wall to share her story of growing up being teased for her darker complexion and doing the work in adulthood to embrace herself unapologetically.
You’ll gain a deeper understanding of the personal toll that colorism can take and how resilience, self-love, and community support are essential in navigating these challenges.
Radical Remembering is a podcast that covers liberation, personal growth, self-awareness and awareness of topics at the intersection of mental health, spirituality and self-help. Each episode will leave you with intimate knowledge of the liberation process, sprinkle a little healing magic, and leave you with wisdom for your journey. Stay tuned for the next episode.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
