Episode 16: Black Moms in the Movement

If you are one to follow politics and social media, you’ve heard the term #blackwomenlead. If you are NOT into politics, now would be the time to do so–your life and body literally depends on it. We are seeing an uptick of black women running (and winning) their respective campaigns. Well, that’s because black women show up, and do the job is asked of us. Come listen to our guest momologist that will dive into why you need to run for an office and stop the excuses.
