Foot on Yo’ Neck is a podcast devoted to stirring dialogue that fortifies the well-being, livelihood, and imaginations of Black Women, all while talking just a lil bit of shit! Foot on Yo’ Neck was created in 2019 because we were tired of witnessing Black Women being disparaged in media and academia. This podcast is a sonic community that is rooted in the Black Womanist tradition of alternative world-building. Foot On Yo’ Neck is about applying pressure to all systems of power through expressing our collective truths and manifesting unyielding liberation.

At the beginning of 2024, we recorded and sent each other voice notes on the topic of grief. We start with a short intro to bridge into these recordings and end the episode with reflection about how our experiences of grief have changed over time, the significance of water and grief for Black people as descendants of enslaved Africans, and how we would like to be commemorated and remembered in time. Accompanied with sounds of the ocean, this is truly a one-of-a-kind Foot on Yo’ Neck episode.

Ep. 45 A Good Ole Yap Session: Living Inside Albums, Knowing When To STFU & Ancestors Died for Our Voting Rights?
What’s an outline? We don’t know her! We have officially accepted that we are both world class yappers and in this episode we riff and rap about it all! Music and our favorite albums. We revive an old segment called “ I Know Why The Choppa SIngs,” where we air out our grievances. We celebrate the power of knowing when to shut up and when to yap, and we eventually dive into our weariness around all the political propaganda swirling around in times such as these. We also introduce our 2nd new segment “Message!” where we break down and critique an event from pop culture or the news. And of course, we close it out with our prophetic proclamations with our segment Put Yo’ Name On It!
