Description

You know it is Black History Month all year long on this podcast!

And we know that this Black History month has a lot of us feeling heavy, fixated on the news- from DEI being dismantled, to government agencies being shut down...

It's alot. The changes are daily, and drastic and… exhausting. 

So, we wanted to step back, reflect and highlight what we know will keep us going- our stories, our voices.

Today, we're sharing an episode that is one of our favorites to celebrate Black History Month: The Sounds of Blackness, where we ask people to share a sound that embodies Blackness to them. 

Plus we sit down with the late and great, Nikki Giovanni, who was a Stoop fan. 

So get that cup of tea, relax, and enjoy the episode!
