Episode Synopsis

Trigger warning: sexual abuse, domestic violence and financial abuse
A continuation of the previous episode, I share my review of Tina Turner's documentary 'Tina,' assessing how her trauma, and that of many other black women, informs their artistry. Briefly talking about Cicely Tyson's book 'Just As I Am', I go on to speak about the importance of black women telling their own stories from their own perspectives, peaks, pitfalls and all.
