Episode Description: We are back with another “Still Resisting” episode, and Black women at play is the topic on the table. In this episode, Ekemini and Christina talk about the amazing Truth’s Table Foundation retreats they hosted for Black Christian women. They discuss the importance of play for Black women and the ways our play is constrained and policed. They are also discussing how Black women can access play in a variety of ways. We hope you’ve got your boots on the ground because we are ready to play! Pull up a chair and have a seat at the table with us!
