Ever worn the "ride or die" label in your relationship? You're not alone. In this episode, we're joined by Shanita Hubbard, author of "Ride or Die: A Feminist Manifesto For The Well-Being of Black Women," to dissect this common trope in Black romantic relationships.
In this episode we discuss:
- The Ride or Die archetype— where it started and how it’s been woven into Black culture
- How to decipher between being supportive vs self-sacrificing
- What our role is in actively dismantling the ride-or-die stereotype
- And much more!
