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!

Ep. 7- Wine Down with This Womanist Work
Kendra and Kelli cover it all this week-- from The Church (and politics!) catering to entertainment purposes these days to a mighty read from Kendra towards Donnie Swaggart regarding his recent words condemning the Black Church. The nerve! Kelli also shares updates on her office renovations, and Kendra gives a shout-out to her friend, WNBA All-Star Kym Hampton, who was honored at the New York Liberty's recent championship parade as an original player on the team. The hosts are joined on the mic this week by their team: producer Leatra and social media manager Meg. The gang's all here!
