Diversifying Black Femininity: Janet Jackson, The Stingettes, Sarah Baartman, and Sojourner Truth

from The Black Belt Belle · host L.M. Smith

I'm fast approaching forty, and I still have days where I'm questioning whether my outfit looks too masculine. I have spent years questioning what is femininity, and specifically, what is BLACK femininity and why does it look and feel so different from White femininity? Listen as I discuss a few pivotal moments in my childhood that molded and shifted my view of my own femininity. Along the way, we'll discuss Janet Jackson, The Stingettes, Sojourner Truth, and Sarah Baartman (The Hottentot Venus).
