#272 The Forty Year Old Version
Queen & J. are two womanist race nerds talking liberation, politics, and pop-culture over tea. Drink up!
On this episode… Grown ass women on film, our homegirl Lacresha Berry joins us as we review the Netflix film 40 year old version, talk about the politics of being grown with no kids (there are politics, we promise!) Black New York, sex and mad other sh!t.
This week’s hotlist - Afro’s and Audio festival was lit. That 30 for 30 list is complete trash. Big Toni Morrison energy, Posse scholarships, struggle porn, Charm City Kings and Black New York in black and white. From hiphop to headwraps, and everything in between. Creative gatekeepers, the MTA, teenagers shooting their shot, and much much more...
