Fetch the Icebreakers

So sorry, we're late Scorekeepers! And thank you for bearing with us during this crazy summer! We're back with a quick (for us, at least) and guestless episode this week. First, we have a little catch up and then dive into some current events, namely this loud and long overdue global conversation about decolonization we are all finally having out in the open. What a blessing! Then, we play another round of our favorite new game, Icebreakers. And when we talk about our favorite albums, to say we learn more about each other in 10 minutes than we have in two years, that is not an understatement! And, finally, of course, a moment of Pure Black Joy to carry you into a brand new week on the happiest of notes. Let's do it to it, y'all!Oh, and after this we'll be back to our regularly scheduled programming! We have some amazing guests coming up this fall that you're not going to want to miss, so be sure to stay tuned and subscribe to THE SCORE on your podcatcher of choice!--Hosts: Lee Bynum, Rocky Jones, Paige Reynolds (Iyawo Inawale)Producer: Rocky Jones--LINKSSerita Yoga (Website)Rest & Liberation Retreat (Website)“The Case for Reparations” by former Jamaican Prime Minister Percival James Patterson in The Jamaica Reader: History, Culture, PoliticsTaxing Colonial Africa: The Political Economy of British Imperialism by Leigh GardnerThe Building of an Empire: Italian Land Policy and Practice in Ethiopia by Haile LareboDeath and the King’s Horseman by Wole Soyinka--New episodes of THE SCORE drop every other Monday.
