di The Black Joy Mixtape
Kyrisha, the birther and creator of HoneyGroove joined us for the ill recap and origins of the trailblazing music festival that centers queer people and artists of color. TedxRVA still aint put out our talk yet. We will release Track 40 when they do. Tweet them, about it in the meantime!
Amber's sick with wyt-suprenza (causes inflammation, fatigue, oppression in the chest) but we still here bringing you, your favorite news and politics podcast is delivering the news just the way it should be reported in an era of Black Joy...Track #40 on the way.
The number one underground news and politics podcast!
Its unoficially the last weekend of Summer and your favorite news and politics podcast covers everything from the infrasturcture needed to help people displaced by Hurricane Harvey to undocumented people's detention and systemic displacement. White supremacy comtinues base building. Tomi Lohren even has been given the opportunity to make primetime. Meanwhile, Black people are finding Black Joy by time traveling across millenia just to show they still the baddest at AfroPunk. More of that, less uncontrollable white people. That's how we'll win.
The solar eclipse has us shedding fake ass Confederate legacies, anti-Black demons, and prison & criminal justice systems. We hope to call in Cardi B's first number 1 on billboard, thriving Black futures, and monuments for all the greats ranging from yo mama to Missy Elliott.
White people have no self-control. Our calendar had the High Priestess of Black Joy and Da King of the South on Sunday, recording less than 24 hours after white peril and destruction descended onto Charlottesville, VA for the 2nd time in 6 weeks. And the ACLU saw fit to let us know they not only support such terrorism but demand it continue to be protected as "free speech." We at The Black Joy Mixtape had time this week to define global white terrorism, explain why white supremacy at its root can't actually protect all white people, and give Black people a reading list that encourages them to continue to fight and defend themselves.
Black Joy Mixtape will bring Fire & Fury to anyone who shame fat Black women, affirm the actiions of racists rather than those who protest them, and jeporadize the well-being of all Black children.
Wow. Your favorite news between avoiding suspicious packages and being lemonades, the high priestess & king are just trying to survive the week. The president of toothless America or the cis Black isn't giving us much to work with though. Trans folks are not jokes but we have a few for the Cool Colorblind crew...and white folks too.
Look Alive! Trans people are not a burden, but Rick Ross' sexism definitely is. The same week that Janet Mock made an appearance on The Breakfast Club to affirm the existence of trans people within the hip hop communities, president 9 announced via Twitter that trans people are banned from serving in the military. We talk with DC storyteller & former cop, Morgan Givens to discuss the realities of trans healthcare, love, & the necessity and possibility of honoring the full humanity of trans Black people.
We learned something from Mariah Carey this week. So, major takeaways: Trust Black Women. Make R. Kelly a hidden figure. The Cool Colored Colorblind had Mike Vick's probate. The president of toothless Americans is spending a lot of tax dollars on himself & wants to spend nothing on American people. Look Alive!
