#153 #MuteRKelly (with Kenyette Barnes)

Queen & J. are two womanist race nerds talking liberation, politics, and pop-culture and over tea. Drink up!

On this spot of tea episode… R. Kelly has BEEN a rapist. Why are we talking about it now? Special guest Kenyette Barnes joins us to discuss #MuteRKelly, the movement to divest from all things R.Kelly and reinvest in protecting Black women and girls.

This week’s hot list: #muterkelly, organizing, activism, to-do lists, misogynoir, sexual violence, divestment, lynching metaphors and history, general ashiness, the #metoo movement, #timesup and learning to #listentoBlackwomen
