Ashton Legadoé on 'Nana's Boys' and Leaving a Legacy Through Black Queer Storytelling
<p>In this episode of Odejuma, Harry speaks with filmmaker Ashton Legadoé, whose path runs from a Cape Verdean family in New Bedford, Massachusetts, to telling some of the most tender Black queer stories on screen. This is a conversation about legacy. What it means to build something that outlasts you, in your work, in your community, and even in the name you carry.</p><p>Ashton talks about Nana's Boys, his feature about two Black men whose love is tested when life stops cooperating, and why he stopped waiting for permission to make it. Along the way, he reflects on his immigrant roots, the responsibility of representation, and giving the next generation of storytellers the resources he had to find on his own. It is a conversation about creating without apology, and the quiet conviction that the stories of everyday people are worth keeping.</p><p>Connect with Ashton on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ashtonsdreams/</p><p>Connect with Harry on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/harryitie/</p><p>Watch Nana's Boys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-bTK8K10Tg</p><p>For more information on Harry, visit: https://www.harryitie.com/</p><p>Get Odejuma delivered straight to your inbox, alongside personal reflections on the episode by subscribing to the Substack here: https://odejuma.substack.com/</p>

Dr. Brittany Lewis Is Building a New Table
<p>In this episode of Odejuma, Harry speaks with Dr. Brittany Lewis, a scholar, author, and the founder of Research in Action. At its heart, this is a conversation about power: who holds it, who gets studied, and who gets to decide what counts as knowledge. Brittany shares how a queer Black girl from North Minneapolis became a scholar who refuses to write research that only mesmerizes problems. She talks about the Black women who raised her, the choice to leave a tenured path that was never built for her, and the idea at the center of her book, ‘Building a New Table.’ They get into community-centered research, the work behind Minnesota's first Office of Missing and Murdered Black Women and Girls, and what it means to build something meant to outlast you. This is an unhurried conversation about resilience, community, and living in your truth.</p><p></p><p>Connect with Brittany on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brittany.m.lewis/</p><p></p><p>Learn about the convening here: https://www.researchinaction.com/convening</p><p></p><p>Learn more about her book here: https://www.drbrittanylewis.com/book</p><p></p><p>Connect with Harry on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/harryitie</p><p></p><p>For more information on Harry, visit: https://www.harryitie.com/</p>
