“I have no dream job, I do not dream of labor.” - James Baldwin
"Womanist is to feminist as purple is to lavender" - Alice Walker
If you're interested in womanism and feminism, the connection between religion and authority, activism, racial justice, and being at ease - this conversation is it!
In this episode we also talk about EbonyJanice's new book, and how her personal life and love of romance were a part of her book writing process.
We ask questions:
- What does it mean to be an activist?
- How can embracing softness be a form of activism?
- What does it mean to decolonize authority?
