Jahari Shelton, Isaac Pickrum, and Atswei Laryea engage in conversation about news, culture, liberation, and justice hoping to provide the conditions for thought-provoking dialogue amongst listeners.
In this episode, two special guests, Elisabeth Betts and Sterling Kee, join the podcast to discuss one of the hottest topics right now: voting. With an election coming up that stirs all types of feelings and reactions, we miss opportunities to be nuanced and thorough. Later, we talk a little about the new song “WAP” and how the country’s hatred for Black women’s liberation turns their music into subjects of political ammunition.
