S7E6 – Black Women Told Y’all: The Election Results

In this episode, Jenn and Daren return after a brief hiatus due to a bout with COVID-19 to discuss the aftermath of the recent election results. This episode dives deep into the implications of the election, focusing on the role of Black women and the voting patterns that led to the unexpected outcome.

In The Conversation, they analyze the election results, highlighting the phenomenon of split-ticket voting, where voters supported Democratic issues like abortion rights but still voted for Trump. Jenn and Daren also explore the concept of the “glass cliff,” where women, particularly Black women, are set up to fail in high-stakes situations.

In the Reflection, they delve into the broader implications of Trump’s re-election, including the potential cabinet appointments and policy changes that could arise. They stress the importance of recognizing the influence of white voters, particularly white women, in determining election outcomes. Jenn and Daren call for a shift in focus towards understanding and addressing the voting behaviors of white Americans in future elections.

Podcast Summary: This is an accidentally funny podcast about the realities of Blackness and adult life. We do “adult” differently. We are That Black Couple. Our goal is to create a space for Black millennials to discuss and embody adult life on their own terms. We aren’t beholden to “traditional” gender or parenting roles, queerness is fluid and present in the ways we show up in our relationships and in the world, and we want to build community with other 30-something Black folx who are trying to figure this ish out.
