   The Goldsboro Family: A History of Perseverance

   Send us a Text Message. (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2163231/open_sms) Have you ever wondered how your family's past shapes your present? In this heartfelt episode of Life After 11, we promise an intimate journey through time as we sit down with my great uncle, Coleman Goldsboro. Uncle Demi opens up about our family's roots, dating back to the early European settlements in Talbot County, Maryland, in the 1630s. He shares touching stories about his parents, George and Ida Goldsboro, their life in Pocomoke, Maryland, and the poignant memories of siblings who passed away too soon. This chapter is not just about history; it's a tapestry of personal anecdotes that give you a deeper understanding of our family's legacy. We then turn our focus to the life and legacy of my mother, exploring her passion for education, community involvement, and her courageous role in the civil rights movement. From desegregating local establishments to participating in Freedom Rides, her inspiring actions are a testament to her character and values. The episode also uncovers the rich heritage of Mo, tracing his lineage from Uganda to New Orleans and his connection to Native American ancestry. As we celebrate the resilience and diverse backgrounds of our family, you'll gain a newfound appreciation for the experiences that have shaped us.

   Final Season Teaser: Exploring Radical Ethical Spirituality with Family & Friends

   Send us a Text Message. (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2163231/open_sms) What happens when a doctoral dissertation transforms into a mixtape that redefines spiritual and cultural paradigms? Join us for the fourth and final season of Life After Leaven, where we unravel a radical ethical spirituality grounded in ethnographic tradition. This isn’t just any dissertation; it’s a multimedia project that challenges conventional wisdom and shapes a new epistemological framework for our post-digital, post-Christian, multi-faith, and non-faith world. Together with my co-host Mish and a roster of special guests, we'll explore the profound impact of this mixtape on the leadership of Black college students, delving into cultural texts, film analysis, and personal narratives that make up this transformative work. Kickstarting the season with a heartfelt interview, my mom helps set the stage for the autobiographical journey we’re about to embark on. Following this, intimate conversations with my grandmother Leah and Uncle Demi stitch together the familial threads that underpin my work. We’ll dig deep into my love for hip hop and womanism with Dr. Daniel White Hodge, host of Profane Faith, and reconnect with Robert and Tamara for a nostalgic "Where’s the Lie" reunion. As we prepare to launch the mixtape in August, expect episodes that meticulously break down its components and cultural significance. Buckle up for a season that promises to be both intellectually stimulating and emotionally resonant. Let’s get it! Support the Show.
