Mikaila Unmuted: Beyond A Mammy, Mule, & Maid

This season of Mikaila Unmuted, Beyond a Mammy, Mule, and Maid, explores how Black women can shed the roles we were conditioned to carry — the caretakers, the laborers, the silent strength holding everything and everyone together at the cost of ourselves.These roles were never ours by choice. They were inherited through survival, expectation, and systems that required our exhaustion.Here, we begin the unlearning. We question what we were taught to be, release what no longer serves us, and reclaim the fullness of who we are — soft and powerful, rested and worthy, complex and free.This season is not just a conversation. It’s a return to ourselves.
