Episode description

The trailer for Beyonce's 'Black Is King' film has dropped and many Africans are upset! Social media began a dialogue after a Nigerian model accused Beyonce of profiting off of and perpetuating a false narrative about Africa. This week, a friend of the show Ukairo (@ukairoukairo) joins me to discuss appropriation, colonialization, & how Beyonce has started a diaspora war! Are black Americans allowed to connect to their ancestral roots? Are people unfairly criticizing Queen B? Why is everyone so upset?

 

In the News: Kanye is "running for president."
