Description

EP 3 In this explosive episode of NOT ALL HOOD Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Candace Kelley sit down with the unapologetically brilliant poet, actress, and activist Tameka "Georgia Me" Harper. Known for her commanding presence from HBO's Def Poetry Jam to Broadway, Georgia Me shares unfiltered truths about Black excellence, systemic exclusion in the arts, being blackballed in entertainment, and the cultural erasure of poetry.

This episode is a masterclass in radical self-love, hood pride, and the resilience of Black creativity. Georgia Me unapologetically uplifts the hood as a sacred space of community, survival, and joy. She also delivers powerful insight on the gentrification of Atlanta, the misrepresentation of Black stories in media, the commodification of struggle, and the need to honor working-class Black Americans.

Hilarious, heartbreaking, and healing all at once—this is one of the boldest conversations Not All Hood has ever hosted. From P-Valley to power dynamics in poetry, from street code to spiritual sovereignty, Georgia Me speaks for the unheard and reminds us all to never dim our light.
