Goooood morning! Today on the pod Ayeesha is joined by Shaquille Wasasala aka @half.queen. Shaquille is an Auckland based DJ and truth teller whose sets are just as unapologetic and empowered as her presence in every space. Rooted in the experience of her Fijian and Pākēha bloodlines, her background has influenced a confluence of sound that is ever-evolving; musically speaking into a local and global sense of diaspora. She's gone a step further and with her friend and collaborator, JessB, she has created QTBIPOC club night FILTH which continues to uplift the marginalised and decolonise the dance floor. Shaquille says it herself, but she's truly living a full life. From her extreme self awareness as a child, to film school, to having Shabbat with Madonna. It's all there. It's all in this yarn. P.S. Shaquille is extremely funny.LinksFollow @half.queen on InstagramFollow @filthakl on InstagramFollow @bl.ckb.rds on InstagramFollow @eeshash on InstagramWatch FILTH's Boiler RoomListen to Halfqueen on SoundcloudCheck out Amelia Bedelia on YouTube See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On Juneteeth weekend, Darius West shared the @micdropthemovie premiere in #dallas, igniting an overdue celebration of many CHH Pioneers. It was an incredible weekend allowing artists to reconnect, fans to gain a deeper appreciation of the genre, and for all to take in their stories through the documentary. During this interview, the Dynamic Twins share their background, pursuing their calling amid naysayers and standing firm in their beliefs. Did you they had an opportunity to blow up in Hollywood but said “no” to famous producer Mel Brooks when he asked them to compromise their values? About the Dynamic Twins The Dynamic Twins are a Bronx-born Christian rap group composed of identical twins Noel and Robbie Arthurton. The twins moved to California in 1989. They began to make guest appearances on albums by other Christian rap artists, including J.C. and the Boyz' and S.F.C. The group's first album Word 2 the Wize released in 1991 through Broken/Brainstorm Artists International and was distributed to mainstream record stores through Epic Records. S.F.C.'s Chris Cooper helped with production chores and fellow S.F.C.'er The Dove added scratching. Also guesting was Crystal Lewis, whose album Simply the Best had included a song penned by Noel Arthurton. The Twins' second album, No Room 2 Breathe, garnered praise from True Tunes magazine as a "landmark in the Christian rap industry" for basing itself musically around live instruments instead of programmed samples and beats. The third album on B.A.I. was 40 Days in the Wilderness. As with all Dynamic Twins releases, it features many guest appearances, including Ayeesha, who was introduced into the scene on this album. Grapetree Records signed Ayeesha as their first female rapper. The group received 3 Dove Awards nominations for their music and has appeared with well-known artists such as: Westside Connection, Fred Hammond, BeBe, and CeCe Winans, and Audio Adrenaline. #CHH #ChristianRap #ChristianHipHop #ArtistInterview #KingdomBuildingConversation #gospelrap #christfocused #wisdomfromtheword #christianliving #christianrapandhiphop

Haere mai! Welcome back to another episode of No Offence, But. A few days ago, on February 6, it was Waitangi Day. We had another episode planned for today, but a recent conversation Ayeesha had about Waitangi Day and the truth of The Treaty of Waitangi pushed us to create an episode based on this. What is the Treaty? Why is it problematic? What did/didn't it deliver? Why does Ayeesha throw so much shade at it? A lot of questions and a lot of discussion to be had. SO. Pre-warning, it’s a big episode in terms of the heaviness of the truth, with references to genocide, oppression and racism (amongst other things), so if you think you will be triggered by this best to give this episode a miss. Part 2 of this episode will be dropping in a fortnight.P.S.

One woman’s journey during this trying time

Hello and welcome back! I hope you’ve been having a fabulous time since we last caught up. I had a little break from the podcast last week as we, Black Birds, had a live performance as part of Sydney Fringe. One of the performers in the show is my guest today. Richard Tanumi-Whitbread played the role of the host, who was called The Sharman. Now, when Richard is performing he also goes by The Sharman, but don’t be mistaken, The Sharman that Richard was playing in our show was very much a character, and The Sharman that Richard embodies to access a deeper level when performing is very much real (how many times can I say 'Sharman'?!). We’ll discuss all that in the podcast. Richard is a very talented creative artist, musician, creative director, choreographer, and dancer who creates art to heal - both himself and others. We had this chat a few weeks back, right at the beginning of spring and I tell you what, Richard spoke to my soul. I was having the worst morning (funny, now I can’t even remember why) and listening to Richard gave me a fresh perspective on the day. And I hope this conversation does that for you too! Enjoy the talanoa. P.S. Don't forget to rate, review and subscriiiiiibe!And follow Richard/The Sharman on IG so that you can keep up to date with his latest music releases!You can find me (Ayeesha) on IG @eeshash and Black Birds @bl.ckb.rdsxoxo See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Hi! As we all know there's a lot going on at the moment, it's been that way for a while and it looks like it's going to stay like that for a while longer. So I've got my mum back, clinical psychologist Georgia Ash, to talk about what that might mean for us. How do we deal with the uncertainty that has taken a stronghold in our lives since COVID-19? Georgia also chats about why being too optimistic can do us more harm than good and we discuss 'mastery': what is it? & how can we use it to help us cope? Also, Georgia totally reads Ayeesha - shout out to anyone whose parents are psychologists or similar. But it's a good read, it's accurate and it's respectful, and honestly no one can read you like your mum can - psychologist or not.Hope you all have a fabulous next couple of days. And if you or someone you know is struggling don't forget you can call Lifeline on 13 11 14. If you have any mental health related questions that you'd like Georgia to answer then please slide into @bl.ckb.rds or @eeshash DMs! Alternatively, you can send through an email to hello@black-birds.net And don't forget to share the podcast with your friends, share it on IG, and tag @eeshash and @bl.ckb.rds, send through any suggestions or feedback you have!

That’s why I created READY 2020 – 3 inspirational talks (TEDx-style short films) + live Q & A calls for Black women and family with the purpose of inspiring and readying YOU to achieve more. Join me by watching the Ready 2020 talks (coming June 27th) + signing up for the live Q & A calls where you will learn the how to implement the tools and strategies you will need to take your life to the next-level!

“If you're going through hell, keep going” and “comparison is the thief of joy” are some of the very empowering words from Ayeesha Ash in today's episode. Ayeesha is a proud Maori Grenadian woman, co-founder of her creative arts company Black Birds & has worked professionally as an actor for over 7 years!In our chat, Ayeesha shares how the capabilities as women of colour are often denied access to certain spaces to thrive in the same spheres as white people. Ayeesha responded to this lack of representation and gave other women of colour the opportunity to take control over their narratives by starting her own company, Black Birds. Throughout this ep, Ayeesha speaks about her passion for the arts industry and breaks down topics of tokenism, cultural appropriation and how we can all play a part in ensuring that Black Lives Matter isn't just a hashtag trending on social media. I'm forever grateful for Ayeesha's time and energy in breaking down these topics that have always been there, but have risen to the surface lately. Next steps? Let's continue to educate ourselves and put in the work. I highly recommend you listen to Ayeesha's podcast called ‘No Offence, But', which you can find here

Hey whānau, thanks for showing up and shutting down multiple cities on the weekend at the #BlackLivesMatter protests. Very powerful and very important. But these protests and the past few weeks have brought a lot to the surface, including traumas and emotions that we may not have acknowledged before.So! Today I'm joined by clinical psychologist (and my mum) Georgia to chat about trauma and triggers. We discuss what they are, how they can present and how we can cope with triggers that appear in our day to day life. We also have a chat about intergenerational and the idea that the trauma that we live with is not necessarily our own. Plus, Georgia gives advice on how to best discuss your triggers with someone and how to function in a workplace where your co-workers have no understanding of your struggle.For mental health support you can call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636In this episode we mention Roots (the tv series and the book) by Alex Haley, and Emmett Till. Definitely educate yourself on both!Georgia recommends reading The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk.

Hi hi, haere mai! On today's podcast we're joined by podcast host and self-proclaimed fairy thotmother, Emily Zganiacz. Together with her best friend/housemate Alicia Morgan, Emily hosts a podcast called 'Whose Pu$$y Is This?'. A lot of people presume their podcast is about sex because of the title, but it is more about reclaiming ownership of your character and your sexuality in a society that has oppressed women for centuries. Hence "Whose Pussy Is this?" (it's yours). Emily and Alicia challenge people to look introspectively at their past experiences, traumas, relationship patterns and behaviours to begin the process of healing. We talk about all of this in the episode as well as karmic cycles, toxic relationships and bad date stories and all I can say is, wow, I have so much admiration and respect for Emily and how open and honest she is with us and with herself. What a gift! (Also, I had quite a few moments of being utterly shook by how spot on with her advice she was).If you haven't already, make sure you listen to Emily and Alicia's podcast @whosep_ssyisthispodcast.

How did you make out with your Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday business moves? Did you hit your intended goals? Some of us fell short, and during these times we can get caught up with self-doubt. Ayeesha shares some ways to cope and move forward. Dr. Ayeesha Hankins is an educator-entrepreneur living in Portland, OR. Although, Anchorage, Alaska is the city that she will always call home. Her business is aimed at helping women, particularly women of color understand the powerful role their self-beliefs have on their success in life and how to employ strategies to positively influence them. Empowering women to achieve their goals is her meaningful work. She enjoys all things learning and aims to live a life that integrates work, play, good food, time with family, and rest – just a few of her favorite things.

Are you a square peg trying to fit into the round hole that is conventional success? Are you doing what you were made to do? Part of being a first gen is taking the path of uncertainty. And if you can start to normalize the unconventional path, it starts to seem a little less scary. Ayeesha's path has been nothing but conventional. Moving from Alaska to Oregon State, getting her doctorate, and starting her own company, Ayeesha shows us, forging your own path is the ultimate learning experience, and how personal development is key to one's success.
