Summary

Queen & J. are two womanist race nerds talking liberation, politics, and pop-culture over tea. Drink up! On this spot of tea episode… In the 1970’s Sweetback’s Badass song, Shaft, and then Superfly were considered the start of the Blaxploitation genre, and almost 50 years later with a new Superfly, a whole new Shaft on the way, and others in the works, do we still need Blaxploitation? Should we survive on Black Panther alone, and is the real question - who’s gonna save the hood?????
