Fashion On The Beat

This episode features a delightful chat with African-American linguist Jourden Lloyd. This is part of an academic project I’ve got the chance to work on for one of my Civic Engagement classes, with prof. Andrea R. Efthymiou. Jourden and I got the chance to explore how English as a language is able to represent diversity among its native speakers. I chose my podcast as part of this multimedia project because as a fashion writer and freelance journalist involved in social justice, I firmly believe that words have power and significance, either when they are written or used in conversations. Along with my #StoryTellingAsResistance article on my blog, you can find this episode engaging and instructive, with two lovely minds discussing and exchanging stories, narratives, and good vibes. Thanks in advance for listening, and stay tuned for the next episodes as always ☺️✌

I’ve finished watching the MTV tv show “DARIA” (1997-2002) and I wanted to share with you guys my personal impressions of the series under three themes: friendship, fashion, and family.

In this episode I’m reviewing #blackAF, the newest Kenya Barris’ tv show, on Netflix. I needed to unpack a lot of thoughts

Lol, nowhere, no trips

Hello there! In this episode I will talk about how online communities are important for us, both journalists and creatives. As a reference, I’ve taken my January’s blog post “How can I use Twitter as a fashion journalist, creative, and curly flower?” (thecurlyflower.com), and I’ve added other examples of social media platforms and communities that have worked for me and are helping me navigate the media industry. If you’d like to follow me on Tik Tok, you can add me at @thecurlyflower ✌
