Listen "Black Bodies | Episode 18"
Episode Synopsis
Comadre Jennifer sets up the conversation this week. The beauty of comadrazgo is that it invites us to have deeper conversations. We could not talk about embodiment without acknowledging what Dr. Crenshaw coined as “intersectionality”. First and foremost, to describe the lived experiences of Black women in the United States in a legal/judicial system, today, that term has evolved and has been a gift for so many of us. Join la mesa with two special comadres. One whom you already know, Karen Gonzalez and one that is joining us in this podcast for the first time Dr. Tamisha Tyler. Dr. Tyler is an artist, a theologian, a singer, a dancer, a foodie, a lover of all things science-fiction and cartoons and particularly future pessimism. Her dissertation focused on the writings of Octavia Butler.
