Episode 11: Black Feminism, Sex, and Sexuality
Today we have special guest Nia Baker talking about Black feminism, WAP, and how Daphnee is not a fan of Richard Wright and his foolishness. This conversation has all the Peas talking about the importance of letting Black women own their sexuality – unhindered. This episode might get us canceled… but we don’t care. Black women come first, don’t be a pick me, and why be misogynist when you can get twerked on?
