Black Women and Murder
According to a study completed by the CDC between 1999 and 2020 that analyzed homicide rates of Black women ages 25 to 44 across 30 states, black women are 6 times more likely to be killed than white women. In Wisconsin, they’re 20 times more likely! Black women living in Midwestern and Northeastern states were also more likely to be killed by a firearm. Shannon and Lisa end Women's History Month by discussing these big facts, femicide, and ebony alerts.
See you in June!

Black Parenting: Then vs. Now
These days, we hear terms like "gentle parenting," but have you ever been popped so hard you can't scream or speak? Historically, black parents didn't play because that could literally be a life or death situation. Shannon, Lisa, and Karen discuss their own parenting styles versus the way they were parented, the disappearance of "the village," and the underlying love that existed despite the more harsh style of discipline of black parents of the past.

Females in Hip-Hop: Exploitation or Liberation
Meg Thee Stallion, Nikki Minaj, Cardi B, Latto, Ice Spice, Coi Leray, Lola Brooke, Sexyy Red... these are some of hip-hop's most popular female artists today. From their lyrics to the way they dress, it's obvious that this is an industry where sex sells. Are they being exploited by record execs or liberated by the ability to do what they want with their bodies in this space? The OGs didn't dress or talk that way.
Shannon, Lisa, Karen, and special guest, Imani Blair of Lick the Rapper Podcast, discuss these things and more.

Customer Reviews
Q&A
In the most recent episode you mentioned doing a q&a “ask a black woman.” I think you totally should!!! This podcast gave me SO MANY questions about how I can help bring attention to the issues black women face. I completely understand how answering questions and educating white people is draining, so maybe you could do one or two questions at the end of each episode? Something like that would be really helpful for the white people like me who listen to this podcast. ❤️
Who Dat from 5 points
OH my !!! I found this after listening to a story about the black football players at the University of Wyoming.
Then you referenced lady that sold the pig ears and Lucy’s. I’m too excited!!!! To here y’all. Too bad it ain’t a call in show. 🤣🤣
Mallory
Thank you guys for doing this!
It was great!
Super informative with a lot of information as well as opinions in one segment, you put some art in there, personal experience, and lots of personality. The length is just right, and I enjoy the sound effects and music greatly.
