   BONNETS, DURAGS AND SUCH

   In this episode of Live from the Culture, EZ Street brings the panel together to debate one of the most visible conversations around public presentation: bonnets, do-rags, pajamas, and where—if anywhere—the line should be drawn. The conversation moves from airports and college campuses to HBCU dress policies, first impressions, generational style, cultural appropriation, and respectability politics. Is wearing a bonnet outside simply a personal choice, or does how we show up affect how the world receives us? And when schools, businesses, or government officials set dress standards, when does etiquette become the policing of Blackness? With humor, honesty, and a few unexpected confessions, the panel weighs comfort against presentation before arriving at a deeper question: What does your appearance communicate before you ever say a word? Live from the Culture — where Black culture lives.

   JAYNE KENNEDY: FIRST, FEARLESS & NOT DONE YET

   On this episode of Live From the District on SiriusXM, EZ Street sits down with cultural icon Jayne Kennedy Overton. Jayne joins the show to talk about her memoir Plain Jane and the real story behind her groundbreaking career, from becoming one of the first Black women on a national sports broadcast to the resistance she faced, the legacy she helped build, and the full-circle moments that followed. She shares unforgettable stories from her time in sports media, including how a pivotal Muhammad Ali interview changed everything, plus a candid conversation about truth-telling, healing, and why representation still matters. They also discuss equity for women in sports, her long journey writing the book, and what she hopes the next generation takes from her story.
