Summary

Lady, who is telling your story? The points provided encourage us to think critically about how media tells our history. Are we being fed the truth? What is the real message? In today’s episode, Terri and Dom dive into how the information we take in shapes how we see, think, and feel about ourselves. How do you define yourself and other Black people? Who told you to define us in this way? Remember, we can take control and own our narrative.
