As I was searching though the Anchor website for
things to help me my podcast I came across a podcast called Carefree and Black
Diaries. This is after flipping through
a sea of white hosted podcasts, this one made me stop because why, because she
looked like me. I don’t know why it makes me feel weird when saying this as if I’m
saying something wrong. I’m not
prejudice, anybody that knows me, blah blah blah you know how it goes, but
because she looked like me it grabbed my attention and I clicked on her podcast
and I was immediately drawn to it because of her content. Do Nothing Without Intension was the first episode I listened to
and the things she said were some of the things that I have been saying for
years, one of them was black trauma and the fact that she was tired of watching
it. I’m tired of the slave, segregation,
gangster and hood movies and shows. Note
to Hollywood: We are and can do so much more, but my Spidey senses tell me that
they already know that.
The host, Shaakira
White discuses a wide variety of topics, such as getting out of your
comfort zone, P.I.MP., but not in the traditional sense, Growth, and one of my
favorites is You’re a Fraud (Imposter
Syndrome)! GEM’S dropping all
throughout this episode! When she says
get your pen and paper, this means she’s about to drop some GEM’S. Shaakira is
originally from Florida and with her soft southern twang she excitedly tells us
about her experiences, black history and pop culture and I’m almost sure she is
not one of those people that Charlamagne Tha God talks about on his radio show,
The Breakfast Club.
