Episode 9: Black Power

In this final episode of Season 1, Dr. Myriam and Dr. Laura seek to ask whether we are using the right frameworks to tackle issues of Black empowerment and Black liberation. What do those terms mean to Black people today anyway, and do we have to agree on issues of identity and strategy in order to play our part?
