Blacktivities connects the black history we never learned in school to everyday experiences and issues facing black Americans today. A blend of humor and insight, this podcast connects the past and present in an engaging and entertaining way.
Blacktivities is where Black women gather to talk about life, history, and everything in between. It’s a celebration of Black culture, Black perspectives, and the shared experiences that shape how we move through the world.
With the perfect balance of humor and depth, Blacktivities connects Black America’s past to the present through conversations that are thoughtful, relatable, and sometimes nostalgic. We talk about everyday life, current issues, and cultural moments the way they’re actually discussed off-mic.
Hosted by Shannon, Lisa, and Karen, the show centers Black women’s voices while showing that no two experiences are the same. Different viewpoints, real dialogue, and honest reactions all live here.
If you enjoy smart conversations that don’t feel preachy, cultural commentary that still knows how to laugh, and a podcast that feels like home, welcome to Blacktivities.
Press play. Stay awhile.
Shannon is a veteran educator, wife, mother of two, and host of the U Talk, I’ll Listen Podcast and Blacktivities Podcast. She started podcasting during the quarantine of 2020 at the height of arguments over racial justice, politics, and mask mandates when she decided to create her first podcast centered around listening to others’ stories, perspectives, empathy, and mental health.
