We’re back with another truth-filled episode of the S&M Podcast, and this one? We’re not holding anything back.This week, we’re talking:🛑 The power of having a backbone — in friendships, in life, and in the face of pressure👀 Why abuse is often used to “humble” powerful, influential women (and how we see it play out in pop culture)😒 Compliments laced with contempt and the microaggressions we’re tired of pretending to laugh off🖤 Internalised racism, especially from Black men and the exhausting obsession with Black women’s hair — unsolicited commentary, criticism, and control.We’re peeling back the layers, calling things by their name, and reminding you: stand for something — or fall for everything.As always, email us your hot takes or dilemmas at [email protected] 💌Like, comment, subscribe and share with a bestie who gets it x#SandMPodcast #BlackGirlVoices #BestiePod #BackhandedCompliments #BlackHairPolitics #BoundariesAndBackbones #NewEpisodeAlert #RealTalkWithRange
