“Being a Black Woman is a way of listening, a radical form of receptiveness to the lessons that history teaches.” Dr Marina Magloire takes Risa on a beautiful trip through Lucille Clifton’s spirit writing, the ways Cecile Fatiman and Marie Laveau remain multiple and uncontained, Carl Sagan and the voices in the archives. This episode is dedicated to Hallie Mae Meadows. Gone so soon.
