Summary

This week Brenda, Amira and Jessica are joined by special guest Frank Guridy, Associate Professor of History and African-American and African Diaspora Studies at Columbia University. With an abundance of abiding ties to Texas, they discuss last week's devastating winter storm and unpack the layers that changed how different communities were impacted and survived. Then, they bask in the joy of the Australian Open and Naomi Osaka's 4th Grand Slam title. And as always, they burn the misogynist and racist happenings in sport of this week, shout out the Torchbearers shining light in spite of it all and share what's good in their lives, which includes last week's SNL hosted by Regé-Jean Page with musical guest Bad Bunny. This episode was produced by Tressa Versteeg. Shelby Weldon is our social media and website specialist. Burn It All Down is part of the Blue Wire podcast network.
