Episode 41: Black Is King
from Work Bae · host Naana & Obie
It’s another week in the Black Mirror episode that is 2020 and things keep getting weirder!! 🥴 We kick off this week’s episode with a few hot takes, everything from the announcement of Kamala Harris as Biden’s VP pick, to Trump’s unabashed voter suppression and finally our collective bewilderment to why white people can’t let us have things for ourselves?!? We wrap up the episode by exploring Beyonce’s latest visual album, Black Is King, and center the conversation on context, not just of the project itself but the lens through which we viewed it as first-generation African immigrants. You might be surprised where the conversation goes! 🐝✊🏿✨ Make sure you tune in every Monday for a new episode of Work Bae with Naana and Obie.
