In honor of Black History Month, we continue to explore the experiences of black women in America. In this episode we delve into what we can learn from our ancestors.  We have an in depth discussion with Dr. Cynthia King professor of Communication Studies that specializes in public speaking, African American rhetoric, race and media.  This was truly an inspiring and insightful conversation that highlighted lessons we can pull from the trauma, messages from our ancestors about who we are, and notes from their playbook on equal justice movements. You definitely want to check this episode out.
