79. We Love Being Expansive & Limitless
from We Love That! Hosted by Kenyon & Jerome
With Oscars on the brain and some s'wintry weather overhead, that can only mean one thing: it's Black History Month! After we get swept up in the mess of the Academy Awards and white people accepting apologies, we dive into some texts by Black authors to reflect on history, memory, and how we exist after death. If you've been grappling with the messiness of the diaspora or other people's versions of ourselves or the elasticity of history right now... well first, take a deep breath.
