About this Episode
The Affordable Care Act. Obama two-term presidency. Marriage equality. Black Lives Matter. Black women electoral power. Intersectionality sews the threads of Black Girl Magic. It is also the main course on the table at this episode’s dinner party. Guests hear from Susan Taylor, Aishah Shahidah Simmons, Deon Haywood and Adrienne Shropshire. The conversation touches on homophobia, the AIDS stigma, racism in healthcare and musing about a future Governor Stacey Abrams.

“We’re definitely going to have a black woman governor in the next two years – Stacey Abrams. We already have a Black vice president. So we’re we’re moving that way. They are afraid [of us] and there will be some people out there trying to stop us, but we’re headed in [the right] direction.”
