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.

Black Parenting: Then vs. Now
Season 4 · Episode 7
Monday, March 18, 2024 • Duration 45:08
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
Season 4 · Episode 6
Monday, March 11, 2024 • Duration 43:40
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.
