Ep #93 – Breaking the Cycle (Intimate Partner & Domestic Violence)

Hey!!!! Welcome, Welcome, Welcome To BLACK TO THE FUTURE PODCAST! We are so pleased you could join us here today! On this podcast we will discussing various topics through a Black, Queer, Feminist Lens. Our goal is elevate, educate, and empower those of us in the Black Queer community, and also to help our supporters and allies to become more knowledgeable about what we need as far as support!  

🚨TRIGGER WARNING!!!🚨 On today’s episode, Xay Dé has her baby back! Mikey (MAB) is back to talk with us about Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) as well as Domestic Violence/Abuse. This is a very heavy and sensitive topic, so we recommend caution and if you need to take a step back, we respect you and want you to take care of yourself. But these two unpack what IPV looks like, how to break free of the cycle, and some important information as it pertains to the Black community, Women/Femmes, and the LGBTQAI+ community.
