Today, we are diving into the world of Black Urban Legends with our special guest and Urban Legend fan, Stephanie. Join us as we explore some of the most mysterious, and maybe even laughable stories that have been passed down through generations in the Black community. Let’s start with Tupac being alive, shall we. Folklore or facts?Stephanie Toone (@bonafidesteph) has been telling stories since she was a child. Her interest in the written word started with short stories and journal entries about run-ins with classroom bullies and graduated to reporting on the dilemma of being a closeted teenager by the time she was a high school student. That knack for words developed into a career as a journalist accumulating bylines in publications like the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, The Tennessean, Chicago Tribune and the Virginian-Pilot. Outside of journalism, she's worked in nonprofit communications and executive produced and co-created "What's the Word?," a podcast with a comedic take on culture and social issues dissected by two Southern Black girls.
