#149 Resistance & Brunch

Queen & J. are two womanist race nerds talking liberation, politics, and pop-culture over tea. Drink up! On this spot of tea episode… Can you resist in the workplace without losing your whole ass job? The importance of brunch; Pregnancy, poverty and the patriarchy; loving yourself and your sexuality when your body doesn’t do what you want it to do; and we review Cardi B.’s first studio album because we’re from the Bronx and we have to. This week’s hot list: Brunch, Cardi B., Invasion of Privacy, resistance and anxiety, microaggressions, cosplay, men rappers cosigning woman rapper’s freedom papers, babies… do we need them? Dating while Black and womanist, Queen doesn’t want to “catch the holy ghost” or “praise dance”, physical pain and sexual healing and some feel good letters.
