Eat Don’t Compete with Jazmine DeWees

“Blackness will never be enough,” said society.
Today's episode is a continuation of last week's episode [For the Culture Series - Black Music month PART I], featuring cultural conversationalist Ms. Angelica Smith. Angelica is a music artist and podcaster herself. She has that "it" factor that lets you know she is culturally relevant and sound minded. We had so much fun with this conversation that it lasted way past our normal time. What can I say, the convo got good.
At this point in the conversation we spoke about blackness being this complex thing that is mostly misunderstood and often interpreted by "others" and had to question if we are okay with that.
What does music do for you?
How do you connect it to your culture? Your blackness?
Do not miss out on hearing about how the black culture is made up of so many individually beautiful ingredients that collectively come together to form an amazing pot of gumbo and this gumbo is called "Blackness".

In today’s show I started another series, I hope you guys aren't tried of me ... not yet? Cool. Today I set down with a cultural conversationalist Ms. Angelica Smith. Angelica is a music artist and podcaster herself. She has that "it" factor that lets you know she is culturally relevant and sound minded.
I wanted to talk about culture, so reaching out to Jellie was a no brainer. Fun fact, we've literally never met. That is a true testament to the beauty and familiarity that culture brings to the black community. This episode is a conversation, specifically on the cultural component of Black Music, in celebration of black music month.
Without giving away the entire episode, I will say that I think you would particularly enjoy how Angelica shares with us what separates our culture as black peoplke from other cultures. I know you will enjoy her take on what music does for us emotionally. She has a way of understanding where we were, while relating it to where we are and having hope for where we want to go.
Lean in, this is not an episode you want to miss. This is a conversation you want to hear. Do not miss out on hearing about how the black culture is made up of so many individually beautiful ingredients that collectively come together to form an amazing pot of gumbo and this gumbo is called "Blackness".
It's a celebration, so stay tuned for part II where Jellie shares her call to action with you. Part II - Monday, June 14, 2021
