Gab with Gwen

Gwen and Slim give unpopular and logical hot takes about the Will Smith and Chris Rock slap debacle heard around the world. What does protecting Black women look like? Are respectability politics at play? Is slapgate comparable to the Supreme Court hearing confirmation for Honorable Ketanji Brown Jackson? Where is the outrage about Clarence Thomas? Gwen and Slim consider what happens when keeping it real goes wrong.

Gwen is making a brief appearance from podcast hiatus to talk Tik Tok, racist dog whistles, visible discomfort with saying African American or Black, performative allyship, fake wokeness and the Modern Warrior womblands drama.

Gwen, Ismael and Brooklyn go down hip hop memory lane as we discuss the epic Verzuz battle in July 2020 between DMX and Snoop. This episode is another ode to hip hop and dedicated to DMX who passed away today, April 9th, 2021.

Gwen had to come out of hiatus (again) to share thoughts on the recent hate crime in ATL against Asian women and discuss the importance of BIPOC unity and support to fight against racism and systematic oppression.

Gwen takes a quick break from hiatus to share some thoughts on Coming 2 America 2. Minimal spoilers.
