An Interview with Michael W Twitty, part 1

I don't know how to introduce this - I GOT TO INTERVIEW MICHAEL TWITTY!!! We talked for so long that I was able to break the discussion into two episodes. This is part one, in which we talk DNA and how it doesn't serve Black researchers, writing as a protection of memory the ultimate smallness of the world, human interconnectedness, and many aspects of Blackness as they relate to power and powerlessness - ultimately, finding the power in self-knowledge, including the ugly stuff. please let me know what you think, and after this ep, listen for the next one - that will be part two of this amazing discussion.
