For the last few weeks, The California Report Magazine has been sharing conversations between transgender and nonbinary kids and the people in their lives who love and support them — a series called Love You for You. As we enter Transgender Awareness Month, we shift the lens toward intergenerational stories — young people in their twenties in conversation with transgender elders whose lives trace the long arc of LGBTQ+ activism in California. These bonus episodes carry heavier histories and more mature themes than the family conversations featured earlier in the series. They offer deeper context to the ongoing fight for safety, dignity and self-expression. This week's story brings together Zen Blossom, a 26-year-old Black transgender rights activist at the Transgender Gender-Variant & Intersex Justice Project in San Francisco, and Andrea Horne, a San Francisco-based actress, model and jazz singer who once performed with Sylvester, the legendary disco artist, in the 1970s. Now a historian working on her forthcoming book, How Black Trans Women Changed the World, Andrea reflects with Zen on those who came before them and those who will come after.

Shade Podcast is back. After months away, I'm returning to what we were at the beginning—intimate, unedited conversations, just me and you. This episode adapts an article I wrote in February 2024 for Shade Art Review, asking: Where is the Black Nan Goldin? Where is the documentary photography showing Black intimacy—real, unguarded, not staged, celebrated in major exhibitions or published by prominent publishers? 22 years after I viewed Nan Goldin's The Devil's Playground at Whitechapel Gallery, I explore why I haven't seen a Black photographer gain the same recognition for work depicting intimacy with the same unflinching honesty.This isn't about replicating what Goldin did. It's about wondering why Black artists working in this space haven't emerged to the foreground with the same institutional support. As Black people, we move through the world with vulnerability. Our bodies have been mistreated and misrepresented throughout history. So maybe there's a reason why not all is being revealed.This article led to an exciting collaboration I'll share more about when I can.Read the full article at Shade Art Review: https://shadepodcast.substack.com/Contact: lou@shadepodcast.co.uk | Instagram: @shade_podcastShade is an independent, one-person operation.

How does a college dance teacher end up becoming one of the most recognized names in fitness? In this Fitness Friday episode, Shaun T joins me to share how he went from teaching hip-hop classes at Equinox to creating Hip Hop Abs, Insanity, and inspiring millions of people around the world. We talk about what really keeps people motivated, why fun matters more than fear, and how confidence gets built one rep at a time. Shaun also opens up about his evolution, from being told he'd never hit like a pro to beating Serena Williams in doubles, and how therapy changed his mindset as a high achiever. He shares what it was like to grow through the early days of Beachbody, how Hip Hop Abs was born, and why showing up fully as yourself is what creates real connection. For Shaun, being a gay Black man in the fitness space wasn't something to hide. It became his strength. Shaun T is a fitness trainer, choreographer, and motivational speaker best known for programs like Insanity, T25, and Hip Hop Abs. He's also an advocate for mental health, self-belief, and authenticity in and out of the gym.

Hey lady! We know that the daily onslaught of the news of these times can be distressing and difficult to ignore. There are genuine reasons to feel alarm during the current administration but we are blessed to have a deep history of having visionaries, luminaries, and trailblazers offer a blueprint of how to imagine brighter tomorrows.Octavia Butler is one of the most prescient artists of our time but her life was lived somewhat in obscurity, only coming to prominence long after her death. Yet, her writing gave way to world-building where weird, strange, genius Black women could write themselves into the future by being present with their experience. Dr. Susana M. Morris, a waymaker in her own right as a founding member of the Crunk Feminist Collective and author of Positive Obsession: The Life and Times of Octavia Butler, explores how Octavia's life circumstances, disciplined writing practice, and passion birthed works that offer a clear-eyed examination of society and culture while also giving full permission for Black women to indulge our imaginations for a beautiful future that includes us!Join Terri and Dr. Dom as they have a spirited discussion with Susana about Octavia Butler and her powerful artistry. While Octavia made it clear that she was not a prophet; she was so deeply connected to her dreams and words that she manifested a body of work that has inspired generations of future trailblazers and wayshowers. Quote of the Day:"Black women writers are necessary so that Black women can define and depict their own experiences rather than being objects in the stories of others." – Octavia Butler  Where to find Susana Morris:Website: Susanmorris.comBook: Positive Obsession: The Life and Times of Octavia ButlerInstagram: @susiemayeTwitter (X): @iamcrunkadelicThreads: @susiemaye    Goal Mapping Starter GuideCultivating H.E.R.

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Ali sits down with Connie, a proud Single Mom by Choice whose path to motherhood was anything but traditional—and exactly right for her. Growing up with a Black military dad and a Taiwanese “Tiger Mom,” Connie always felt the weight of expectations about what family should look like. But as she approached her late 30s, knowing she always wanted to have kids, she decided to freeze her eggs. Later, her best friend gave her the clarity she needed: “Connie, if you want your baby, go get your baby. You don't need to do it the traditional way.” Connie opens up about what it was like navigating the SMBC journey as a woman of mixed race, including the emotional complexity of donor selection and the lack of Black sperm donors in U.S. banks. She shares how she found an amazing doctor and clinic, Dr. Joshua Klein of Extend Fertility -- aka Ali's doctor! Connie also talks about navigating IVF, getting pregnant (with twins!), giving birth during Covid and what life is like today, as a single mom of two five-year-olds.EPISODE SPONSORS: BEAUTIFUL BIRD AND WORK OF ARTAli's Children's Book Series about IVF, IUI and Family Building Through Assisted Reproductive Technology https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksThe latest book in the Work of ART series, “Beautiful Bird” tells the story of three parents, one incredible boy and a family built with love—and a little bit of science.Pre-orders are available now!

Tonight's episode uncovers one of the most disturbing and tragic real-life hauntings in American history: the Black Hope Cemetery Haunting. Haunted house? No, this was an entire haunted neighborhood In the 1980s, families buying brand-new homes in a quiet Texas subdivision believed they were moving into the perfect neighborhood… until they made a horrifying discovery beneath their backyards — the graves of Black Hope Cemetery. What began as unease soon spiraled into a nightmare: -Mysterious coffins hidden under freshly built homes -Residents falling ill and passing away after disturbing the graves -Unexplained footsteps, apparitions, and voices inside multiple homes - Tragic deaths that locals believe were the result of a curse -A chilling pattern linking every family who tried to dig — or move the bodies For the homeowners, simply living on the property wasn't safe. The haunting seemed intelligent… vengeful… and impossible to escape. This isn't a haunted house, this was an entire haunted neighborhood If you enjoy true hauntings, cursed land, and real paranormal cases with devastating consequences, this is an episode you don't want to watch alone.

In this episode of The Jason Cavness Experience, Jason sits down with Tierrá Bonds, Founder & CEO of Take Charge Credit Consulting. To dig into the financial realities so many people quietly struggle with  credit, debt, generational trauma, and why the racial wealth gap continues to grow in the U.S. Tierrá breaks down her journey from her early struggles with credit to becoming one of the leading trauma-informed financial coaches working with individuals, nonprofits, and government agencies across Washington State. She shares how childhood experiences shape our relationship with money, why credit systems are designed the way they are, and the truth behind predatory lending, payday loans, rent reporting, and how the system keeps people stuck.  The conversation dives deep into motherhood, entrepreneurship, financial trauma, the psychology of money, the realities of poverty vs. "American poverty," building wealth later in life, and how Tierrá helps people repair credit, rebuild confidence, and create generational change. If you've ever dealt with financial stress, avoided looking at your credit report, or felt like you were "behind," this episode will hit home. Topics Discussed: • Motherhood, entrepreneurship, and finding life balance • Travel stories, cultural experiences, and exploring the world • Trauma-informed financial coaching and why money triggers people • Generational wealth gaps and the racial credit gap • Credit myths, credit utilization, and how the system really works • Payday loans and predatory financial structures • Rent vs. homeownership and the importance of education • Why many families avoid talking about money • Business credit vs personal credit and TikTok myths • Working with nonprofits, cities, and the Department of Commerce • Why many entrepreneurs aren't ready to be business owners • Funding disparities for Black women founders • Mental health, financial shame, and asking for help • Tierrá's long-term vision: entrepreneurship, investment, and social impact • Advice for anyone trying to finally get their financial life in order Support CavnessHR  Help Fix HR for Small Businesses CavnessHR is building an AI-native HR system for small businesses with 49 or fewer employees.

There is always more news than any show can cover. I would love to cover only certain topics as this would make it so much easier, but I just get bored talking about the same thing.I know race issues, but I get tired of discussing them. It's impossible not to discuss race, when Democrats are so obsessed with the topic.Look at the Obamas. The biggest race pimps in America now. And with Jesse Jackson Sr having medical issues, they may get the chance to wrestle the crown from only Al Sharpton.We discussed Epstein and the latest revelations put out the fires the Democrat tried to start.We got revelations that should surprise no one, but still will!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Netflix has a hit in “The Perfect Neighbor,” a documentary attracting a lot of attention for both its subject and its form. Using police camera footage, the film shows the events leading up to the killing of a Black mother of four by her white neighbor. It's unquestionably powerful and difficult viewing. But for Wesley and his fellow Times critic Parul Sehgal, it raises all kinds of moral and ethical questions. What does it mean to watch these events through the lens of the police officers involved? Is the movie the filmmakers thought they were making the one that the audience is actually receiving? And should we even be allowed to see this?Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Caregiving services for seniors can easily cost more each year than what the average American makes. And health insurers, both government and private, may not provide the coverage people need. That leads many people to step in and do the work for free. But caregivers need to take care of themselves, too. That's something Dawnita Brown knows all too well, as a caregiver to both her parents, and founder of The Binti Circle. It's a group she founded for Black daughters like her who are doing caregiving work.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Alejandra Marquez Janse, with audio engineering by David Greenburg and Valentina Rodriguez Sanchez.

Send us a textWelcome to another unfiltered Members Only episode where Trent and Aaron spiral into storytime chaos—ripping into everything from the cult of military influencers to the sacred tradition of roasting yourself in the team room. Aaron drops the mic with a jailhouse tale involving littering (yes, really), an angry Ohio cop, and a court date just days before shipping to Lackland. They torch the idea of stolen valor and the performative milfluencer scene, and Trent calls out the “no true Scotsman” nonsense that infects veteran one-upmanship.Oh, and they both agree: if you're using “retired” to feel better than someone with a med board—get over yourself. This one's packed with spicy opinions, war room gossip, and just enough UFC banter to keep your BMF belt warm.

Nov. 20 is Black Consciousness Day in Brazil. A day celebrating the struggle of Black organizations, people, and movements in Brazil. Celebrating the ongoing fight against racism. And, above all, celebrating the history of Brazil's most historic Black leader: Zumbi dos Palmares. He was leader of the great Palmares Quilombo, present-day Alagoas, an autonomous state built by escaped slaves in the 1600s.Palmares would last for roughly a century. It would grow to a population of tens of thousands of people spread out over 11 towns in the forested mountains and hillsides of northeastern Brazil. And they would defend it time and time again against attacks by the Portuguese colonial army. BIG NEWS! This podcast has won Gold in this year's Signal Awards for best history podcast!

Democrats like to push things to the limit, play “chicken” as it were. How many things have they knowingly lied about, then pretended that they were right? Many.And they play with people's lives for sport.Hearken back to COVID.They knew how this happened, but pretended they didn't. They lied about Chinese labs, and actually helped the Chinese concoct a bat story at a market.Then, they lied about how dangerous the disease was. I dare you to re-examine the numbers and the “kill ratios” they proposed. They worked the world into a frenzy, all to get money and power.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Democrats have screwed the pooch in many areas. Below are just a few revelations of interest:1. In 2024, the GAO documented that Department of Homeland Security officials were instructed to suppress internal data showing that the majority of “white supremacist violence” cases were not political at all, and often not white. Meaning Democrats inflated a panic out of thin air — again.2. BLM's 2020–2022 fundraising and real estate acquisitions exceeded $90 million, yet less than 10% of those funds were distributed to Black communities. Turns out the real emergency wasn't police brutality — it was BLM's accounting department.3. Multiple FOIA disclosures from 2023–24 revealed that federal agencies coordinated with social media platforms to amplify certain “crisis narratives,” including climate and COVID content, even when internal scientists rejected those claims. Manufactured chaos, government edition.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Silas' daughter is officially off to college, and he's having a lot of feelings about it. Is college still a no-brainer, or a massive financial gamble you should only take when you're truly ready? He and Samantha talk through parenting a new college student, the realities of campus party culture, and what it means when your kid proudly shows your old comedy sets to her roommates. They also get into the kinds of compliments that really land: being told you're funny or talented versus just “hot,” why recognition for your work hits different, and how our dreams about teaching, MFAs, and creative careers evolve over time. Plus: hotel etiquette wars, cleaning services as mental health, water bottle obsessions, sugar panic, and why we're always one step away from writing a Black & A Half cookbook.

We sit down with the legend, the scholar, and the cultural architect — Dr. Todd Boyd, professor at USC (University of Southern California) also known as “The Notorious Ph.D.” One of the most respected voices in sports, film, hip-hop, race, and American culture, Dr. Boyd brings a raw, intelligent, and unfiltered conversation that every fan of the culture needs to hear.Born and raised in Detroit, Dr. Boyd reflects on how growing up in one of the most influential Black cities in America shaped his worldview. From the sound of Motown to the grit of the streets to the pride of a city that produces icons, Detroit built his mindset — and ultimately molded the cultural force he would become.He opens up about his decision to attend The University of Iowa, revealing the unexpected reasons that pulled him away from home and the experiences that helped sharpen his voice as a thinker, writer, and observer of society.Before the world knew him as a cultural critic, Dr. Boyd's first love wasn't film or academia — it was the sweet science. He breaks down how watching the artistry of boxing, especially the greatness of Muhammad Ali, shaped his sense of identity, resistance, performance, and Black excellence. Ali wasn't just a fighter — he was the blueprint that inspired Boyd's lifelong commitment to telling the truth through culture.From there, he talks about how Dr. J (the other Dr. J — Julius Erving) inspired him to take his education further, ultimately pushing him toward earning his PhD. That moment of seeing Dr. J float through the air made him realize what was possible for a Black man with vision, talent, and discipline.Throughout the episode, Dr. Boyd walks us through an extraordinary career that's woven into the fabric of Black culture. From shaping conversations on ESPN and CNN… to writing some of the most important cultural analysis of the last few decades… to leaving an imprint on Black cinema. And yes — we go deep on “The Wood,” one of the beloved films he helped bring to life, and how its authenticity, humor, and heart reflected the real Black experience.This episode is a blueprint for creators, storytellers, athletes, and anyone who cares about the culture. It's academic, it's real, it's inspirational — and it's filled with gems only Dr. Todd Boyd can deliver.Turn this one all the way up — it's a masterclass. More of Dr. Todd Boyd:Instagram  ⁨@notoriousphd⁩  Twitter/X: @DrToddBoyd  Latest Book: https://www.amazon.com/Books-Todd-Boyd/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3ATodd%2BBoyd

Many Black entrepreneurs know what it feels like to consistently show up online, grow a following, build connection, and still feel like the space you are building on does not fully belong to you. The rules change, your reach shifts, and suddenly everything you worked for feels like it is sitting in someone else's hands. This episode speaks to the founder who wants stability, ownership, and the freedom to build without worrying about algorithms or disappearing access.   D'Angelo Senat joins us to break down what it takes to create an online community that is truly yours. He is the Founder and CEO of AllPeep, an open-source platform designed to help leaders own their data, their conversations, and their digital presence. His journey as an engineer and builder who has supported thousands of founders gives him a unique perspective on how ownership shapes the future of your business. He shares what real ownership looks like, why it matters for Black entrepreneurs, and how to create a space that grows with you.   This conversation offers clarity for the entrepreneur who wants to strengthen their brand, deepen their community, and create a digital home that cannot be taken away. There is real power in ownership, and this episode walks you through how to claim it.   DURING THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: Why building your community on rented platforms limits your growth and impact What it really means to "own" your community and how to start shifting your mindset Step-by-step actions to create a digital space that you control from day one How to keep your audience engaged and connected without relying on social media algorithms The power of data ownership and how it protects your brand and creative work How community ownership helps Black entrepreneurs build legacy, not just visibility Don't miss out on the resources mentioned in this episode by checking out the show notes at blacktobusiness.com/279   Thank you so much for listening!

Send us a textOn this episode of Concrete Genius Pod, Sauce sits down with his brother Real G (Terrell) for a raw conversation about God, growth, prison, manhood, and saving young Black boys from throwing their lives away.They start light, talking about how the weed game fell off down South and how legalization up North flipped the market. But then it gets real:Real G breaks down how he went from Gary in the crack era to prison, to now serving in the church, leading men's meetings and mentoring youth.He talks about breaking generational curses, building integrity, and teaching young men about credit, work ethic, morals, and principles.Sauce and Real G tell real prison stories and explain how one emotional decision can cost you 20+ years.They break down felony murder in plain language so young dudes understand that riding along, holding the door, or being in the wrong car can still get you a murder charge.They give young men real game on staying free: learning trades, cutting hair, HVAC, painting, pressure washing, and hustling legally instead of chasing a fake street image.They talk about finding the right woman – a solid, God-fearing, feminine woman who believes in you, helps you grow, and doesn't compromise her morals.Sauce shares why real toughness is staying with your family, paying your bills, and being present – not sitting in a cell for pride.This one is for young kings thinking about the streets, for OGs who been there, and for anybody trying to turn pain into purpose.Support the show

Episode 340: Robert Randolph had no plans or dreams to take his fiery talents on the pedal steel guitar beyond the New Jersey church where he grew up and the network of pentecostal Black churches around the country that made the "sacred steel" a core part of their services. But his passionate sound and his joyful improvisational spirit were a perfect match for the jam/rock scene of the early 2000s. He's been a steady contributor ever since, through wide collaborations and a string of albums with his "Family Band." Now he's leading the band under his own name and he has a fabulous new record on the revitalized Sun Records.

This film...wow. The spiritual successor to The Thing With Two Heads, we discuss 1990's Heart Condition, easily the worst film Denzel has ever been in.  In what feels like an attempt to cash in on the success of Who Framed Roger Rabbit, this poorly imagined race comedy inserts Denzel into the Roger Rabbit role and instantly jumps into our worst things we've watched list. An insane film where Bob Hoskins throws out slurs left and right and somehow ends up the father of a Black child.  We ask if this is Denzel's worst role, what even makes a good racial comedy, and invent the role of racism stunt double (Key and Peele call us!).  As always, hit us up on the socials at @whitepeoplewontsaveyoupod on IG and TikTok and write to us at whitepeoplewontsaveyoupod@gmail.com  We'll be back next week to talk about the recently released remake of The Running Man. 

In this one we sit down with Robby Black from Black's Deer Processing. We talk about the progression of technological advancements in the hunting industry and whether or not it is hurting the art of woodsmanship. Robby is an incredible guy, processor, and hunter with a trophy wall that would rival anyone's in the south. This was a fun one! . In this one we sit down to discuss what makes this time of year magical for most of the midwest. We also compare and contrast the way hunters approach the month of November in the southeast when most of the states are not seeing rut activity until later in the season.
