Black In Amsterdam (with Ayra Kip!) Nov 19, 2020

Show notes

Ask for more. That's the lesson, and it's one our host Noleca applied when she and her life partner, Homero, moved their family out of the United States.

But they didn't do it alone, and in this episode she chats with the woman responsible for their safe passage to Amsterdam.

Together, Noleca and Ayra discuss their decision to raise their children in the Netherlands, share stories about Blackness, and detail the ways they intend to show up more for their people.

Away-Sickness (with Qianna and Andre Pijeaux!) Nov 12, 2020

Show notes

To move is to survive, at least that's often the case for Black people.

In this episode our host Noleca chats with Qianna and Andre about movement and their collective decision to choose safety and peace. Together they reveal the affect moving has had on their children and discuss what they have learned, struggled with, and appreciated about their travels. This conversation begs the question, if you could move to a place that suited your family and valued your life, where would you go and what's stopping you?

The Ballot or the Bullet (with Allegra and Keith White!) Oct 29, 2020

Show notes

Vote or die? Propaganda or facts?

In this episode, Noleca chats with her life partner Homero and friends of the pod, Allegra and Keith White about the high stakes of the upcoming Nov. 2020 presidential elections and the obligation to go vote.

Together they discuss if there's any difference between an overt and covert racist, how they are prepping their families for election day, and if staying in the U.S. is worth it--no matter who sits in the White House.

What in the PWI (with Shalewa Mackall!) Oct 23, 2020

Show notes

Every decision has a consequence and trade-off, especially when it involves attending or working at a predominately white institution.

In this week's episode, Noleca and her Woe, Shalewa discuss what it's like to be a guide. They also speak on the gains they get from working with students, but also the trauma of having to compartmentalize racism and micro-aggressions from white colleagues, children, and parents at PWIs.

It's not cute. It's a lot to confront and it makes one wonder . . . is all hope lost? Are compromises inevitable or is there a better way?

What if, instead of squishing ourselves and conforming, Black and other people of color showed up as their full selves at these institutions?

Divination (with Timil Jones!) Oct 15, 2020

Show notes

The ancestors are speaking. Are you listening? Are you open?

This week our host Noleca chats with mystic Timil Jones about all things divination. Together the two discuss alters, tarot cards, divine knowing, and giving our children the space and guidance to engage with the astral plane.

Perhaps our grandmas, big mamas, and aunties were on to something? And maybe our bodies have always known that time is not real and we already have everything we need to fly.

Tune in for a treat and some otherworldy video game and television show recommendations to spark the imagination and bring you closer to yourself.
