Queen & J. are two womanist race nerds talking liberation, politics, and pop-culture over tea. Drink up! Queen is creating space for Black joy and J. is crying during her cosplay wrap up of Black Comic Book Festival. Are white folks whiting at you? We discuss Leah McSweeney and the modern day delusions of whiteness that used to get innocent Black folks killed. Also, Bishop Eddie Long is a dead rapist. Drink up! TRIGGER WARNING* We discuss child rape during the “Pit” segment of this episode. This week’s hot list: Black joy, ordering groceries in the hood, cosplay, Black Comic Book Festival, #FreeBresha, vision board parties, the pathology of whiteness/white fragility/white delusion/white-splaining all up and through Hollywood and our everyday lives, how we talk to children about sexual abuse, micro-aggressions, Queen matches with Michael Che on tinder, Steve Harvey gets racist, and all kids of cool shit in between. Tweet us while you listen! #teawithqj @teawithqj EVENTS On Thursday, January 19th, 2017 we’ll be at The Free Black Woman’s Library/January #FreeBresha day of action at the Brooklyn Movement Center 5pm-9pm.
