Dear Mamas & Magic Makers,
Lissen yall Sinners was all about Annie for us! We ain’t gon hold you with our normal intro.
In this episode we dive into:
- Annie, power, and Black motherhood
- Loss, longing, and sex
- Black humanity, spirituality, and grief in Ryan Coogler’s films
- Black migration & the resurgence of Southern Roots
PLUS – we have social proof that a Black mama would have made a COMPLETELY different decision than Grace.
And we’re excited to have some listeners on The Muthaship, live inside the Black Mama Magic room for this episode. We welcome:
- Clem the Doula, doula and creator of The Gift: A Breastfeeding Journey in Black, a cultural care circle for Black families navigating feeding, healing and identity.
- Stacey Allen, founder of Nia’s Daughters’ Dance Collective
- Stephanie Ghoston Paul, founder of Cultivated Sense, where she helps movement makers embody their joy while operating as their freest selves.
