Blackness is the Root, Not the Exception w/ Nina Turner

  • サマリー

  • What does it mean to love the tree but hate the root? In this powerful episode, we dive into the complexities of colorism, racialized capitalism, and the enduring impact of anti-Blackness across the diaspora. Inspired by Senator Nina Turner's wisdom and fiery insights, we explore how Blackness is not only the root but the prototype, the foundation of culture, beauty, and brilliance.

    From the haunting legacy of the Doll Test to the generational trauma of colorism, AJ and Sam unpack the deep scars left by white supremacy and the systems that perpetuate them. We also reflect on the social hierarchies within the Black community and how systemic oppression continues to shape policy and perception.

    As we reflect on Nina Turner’s bold call to action, this episode challenges us to face the truth, reclaim our worth, and demand long-overdue justice.

    Whether you're new to the term African Booty Scratcher or have been on this journey with us all season, this conversation sets the stage for the next episode's season finale— a reflection on where we've been, what we've learned, and where we're headed.
