On this podcast episode, we talk about the infamous African diaspora war.

There were a few other young ladies who were single, unwed with children, patiently waiting for someone — anyone — to come and save them from their singleness. We were beautiful, ambitious women — why were we being overlooked? Then it hit me. We weren’t virgins and just like Hester Prynne, our babies branded us with scarlet letters.
Kyra, Lawrence and Sterling talk about the events that transpired during one of the most eventful Black History Months in recent memory. Tune in as we touch on everything from Jussie Smollet to Gucci's blackface mask.
