Summary

The women are back at the table! In this episode, Ekemini, Michelle, and Christina reflect on the life and legacies of Civil Rights heroes, John Lewis, Emma Sanders, Rec. C.T. Vivian and others. The women discuss what it means to give people their roses while they yet live so they can enjoy the fragrance they give and the importance of being the roses for those who are still in the land of the living. Have a seat at the table and make sure you keep your tissues nearby.
