BAPC x Brianna Holt When you are a real reader you learn that relatability isn't limited to an identity. Sure, a work can be aimed at a target audience, but that doesn't mean that you wont' see yourself reflected and/or identify with the work at hand—not that those things should matter in the first place. Alas, Brianna Holt wrote In Our Shoes with Black women in mind, but anyone can pick this book up and find themselves reflected within the work she did. It was a true pleasure to spend time with her. *** Recorded on 5.1.23 *** Join The Fellowship—BAPC's Patreon Community Subscribe to BAPC on YouTube Subscribe to The Days—BAPC's Newsletter Follow BAPC on Instagram Shop BAPC's Bookshop

Jamal will debunk the false narrative that Black women only just began to write provocative songs expressing their sexual identities. Complex culture writer Brianna Holt and Baltimore creative writer Brianna Holt have the Hall Pass on this week's episode.

Hey, hey! In this episode, join me as I engage in a meaningful conversation with Brianna Holt, author, writer, and reporter, on her debut book titled IN OUR SHOES: On Being a Young Black Woman in Not-So "Post-Racial" America. Together, we explore the pervasive stereotypes and systemic challenges that Black women face on a daily basis, and empower ourselves to stand in our power.Holt's book offers a roadmap for expanding empathy, understanding, and allyship, as we dive deep into critical topics such as:• The "adultification" of Black girls, which has been linked to violence against them;• The danger of medical misinformation, which often results in Black women being ignored, disrespected, and even fatally harmed;• The prevalence of appropriation, where non-Black individuals treat Black art, music, and style as trends to try on, while Black individuals are criticized for the same things that are part of their cultural identity.Join us as we unpack these important issues and learn from Holt's insights and solutions.You can purchase her book here* -> In Our Shoes: On Being a Young Black Woman in Not-So "Post-Racial" AmericaYou can learn more about Brianna here:Her websiteHer Instagram*As an Amazon affiliate I earn a small percentage every time a purchase is made from my link.
