Summary

Queen & J. are two womanist race nerds talking liberation, politics, and pop-culture over tea. Drink up! On this episode… Happy Mother’s Day! We don’t have kids. We no-spoilers review Master of None and how it went from an ode to white women to an actually funny show. Also parodies of Black power and the tokenism of Black women. This week’s hot list: We’re not your moms, we Netflix binge Master of None and Dear White People, are Black women the new Black? None of us will watch the BET awards but we talk about their participation awards anyway cuz they family. Does anyone care about women in hip hop? Islam in the media, race as satire, PWIs vs HBCUs (again, probably forever), pro-Black vs self-righteous, and woke is finally a four letter word.
