Ep. 100 - Sistas, Y'all Alright?: Sonya Massey, Kamala Harris, and the Black Woman's Rollercoaster

In this episode, Amber and Erika pause to reflect on the horrific murder of Sonya Massey and the ascendance of Kamala Harris to the Democratic presidential nominee - all in the same week. We discuss how both women reflect different, yet ugly truths, about the unjust American police state. And we also reflect on the unique emotional impact of both events on Black women. Can we truly mourn Sonya Massey and simultaneously celebrate Kamala Harris? Is representation still a valuable indicator of progress? Can we hold the tension of Kamala's identity as a law enforcement agent while still celebrating the historic significance of this moment? Tune in to hear what we have to say!
