My good sis Courtney Napier joins me for the latest episode of Please Say Black. During this episode, Courtney and I travail together reflecting upon the old adage, often credited to our dear ancestor Zora Neale Hurston, “All Skinfolk Ain't Kinfolk.” Together, we hold space to share our feelings with the expression and unpack the ways we have embodied it. As we unravel this important communal conversation we realize that proximity to Whiteness, respectability politics, cancel culture and community accountability are all parts of this Grown Folks business! During this episode, Courtney mentions Audre Lorde's Sister Outsider: "Sexism: An American Disease in Blackface '' and Candance Owens recent interview with the former U.S president.  Courtney is the Head Editor and creator of Bos Magazine and the Black Oak Society.

In this conversation, writer, publisher and liberation practitioner Courtney Napier joins host Nikki Innocent in conversation about the vital impact of holding space for learning the stories of our elders as we work towards a future where oppression and injustice are dismantled.

Black power, history and progress are centered in this episode. Courtney and Nikki discuss the vital influence of Black women's activism and representation in North Carolina's complex history at the intersection of race and gender. They dive into the importance of celebrating matriarchical wisdom and amplifying stories of everyday anti-racist allyship.
