This Womanist Work Podcast
This podcast is for former church girls who woke up one day and realized that life was bigger than what Big Mama and the Bible say. These friends were lucky that as they started exploring their identities as Black women, they had each other.
The hosts, Kelli King-Jackson, ACC and Kendra Ross, PhD, invite you into their group chat as they talk about faith, f(r)amily, community, politics, and pop culture. They don't believe in leaving any Black woman behind so all are invited into the conversation!
