    DBM Ep 74: A Conversation w/ Loretta Ross: Abortion, Activism, Reproductive Justice & Black Motherhood
    2025/11/20
    Dear Mama & Magic Makers, What if we told you there is an elder alive today who has the blueprint for this moment? Mamas & Magic Makers, if you don't do nothing else before the end of the year, sit at the feet of an elder and LISTEN. Keyword LISTEN. Find an elder or make yourself available to one who is willing not only to share their wisdom but also to be vulnerable, sharing their mistakes, regrets, and healing journey. And this is why we're grateful for our conversation with the brilliant, brave, and vulnerable Loretta Ross, one of the architects of the reproductive justice framework and one of the founders of the reproductive justice movement, about her new book, Abortion & Reproductive Justice: An Essential Guide for Resistance. With sobering honesty, she shares how her personal journey mirrored the evolution of her role in the feminist movement and why, after retiring from the frontline, she's chosen to focus on HOW we do the work. This is the quietest we have ever been in an episode as Ms. Ross shares: Motherhood, aging out of the front lines, and the necessity of matching radical analysis with radical love How Black women's care and solidarity have literally kept her alive Fear of a Black Planet & how American feminism began with enslaved Black women Why we can't afford for fights within movements to be fatal PLUS, we give a praise report to Vanessa Baden Kelly, who wrote a Black ass episode of The Morning Show that touches on Black Maternal Health and Black women's relationships in the workplace. In our Black Mama Say segment for this episode, where we put our twist on sayings from Black mamas, and the saying we're twisting this episode is "Keep Livin." ABOUT LORETTA ROSS Loretta J. Ross is an activist, professor, and public intellectual. In her five decades in the human rights movement, she's deprogrammed white supremacists, taught convicted rapists the principles of feminism, and, as National Co-Director, organized the second-largest march on Washington (in April 25, 2004, March for Women's Lives in Washington D.C., surpassed in size only by the 2017 Women's March). Loretta was one of the first African American women to direct a rape crisis center in the 1970s, launching her career by pioneering work on violence against women, as the third Executive Director of the D.C. Rape Crisis Center. As part of a 50-year history of social justice activism, she retired from community organizing in 2012. She was the National Coordinator of the SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective from 2005-2012 and co-created the theory of Reproductive Justice in 1994. Her many accolades and honors include a 2022 MacArthur Fellowship and a 2024 induction into the National Women's Hall of Fame. Today, Ross is an associate professor at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts, and is the founder of LoRossta Consulting, with which she runs "Calling In" training sessions online and for organizations around the country. Loretta is a rape survivor, raised her child born of incest, and is also a survivor of sterilization abuse at age 23. She is a model of how to survive and thrive despite the traumas that disproportionately affect low-income women of color. Loretta is a mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.

    DBM Ep 73: Sex, Shame, Black Kids & Black Motherhood
    2025/11/02
    Dear Mamas & Magic Makers What if I told you your child was born a sexual being? What if I told you that when it comes to sex and our children, we should focus on preparation instead of prevention? What if I told you intimacy and pleasure for your child were on the other side of your fear of them making a mistake? What if I told you resting in that fear erases a part of your child's humanity and as Black mamas we MUST provide space for our children's full humanity to be embraced. Those were the aha moments Kim Baker guided me to, cause ya girl has been struggling to talk to my sons about pleasure and intimacy, and I had real questions like how to support my child who, if they start losing their mind behind sex, cause it's happened to the best of us. So in this episode, we DIVE DEEP into topics around sex education, intimacy, and empowerment with our special guest, Kim Baker, a sexual health educator and founder of Own Every Piece, which works to resolve the inequities women face in their reproductive journey. We discuss cultivating an open dialogue about sexual health. Kim shares her insights on how parents can navigate these conversations amidst the overwhelming data and misinformation our kids are exposed to. We dive into: Teaching your kids the sign that sex has them in a chokehold cause we know it's happened to the best of usUnderstanding consent and the complexity of preparing our children for healthy relationshipsThe importance of intimacy beyond sexualityPositive parenting approachesThe profound impact of early sex education PLUS - Our LISTENER LOVE EPISODE RECORDING, where we invite our listeners to come on to the podcast, will take place on November 13th. I explain why The Wiz soundtrack was made to carry us through this moment. In our Black Mama Say segment for this episode, where we put our twist on sayings from Black mamas, and the saying we're twisting this episode is "Watch Yo Neck." ABOUT KIM BAKER Kim is a woman of many talents and roles—a Principal Investigator, Assistant Professor, and Assistant Dean of Practice. A leader in the sexual health space, she's been a well-known advocate for accessibility and equity. When she's not advocating for reproductive health, she's a leading voice on racial injustice. She is the founder of Own Every Piece, a multi-partner system-level intervention to increase access to contraception for women. She has also developed sexual health interventions informed by community needs, targeting males, faith institutions, and health providers. She is the co-founder of Full Circle Strategies Consulting Group, a firm that works with agencies across the nation to facilitate anti-racism change within their teams through strategic planning, training & coaching. She also serves as the Vice President of the Board of Directors for the Jacob & Terese Hershey Foundation. She received a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Hampton University, a Master of Public Health from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. From leading teams dedicated to advancing reproductive health to teaching graduate students and training them in public health practice skills, she does everything with grace, a steadfast vision, and fortitude.

    Dear Mamas & Magic Makers What if I told you the collision of declining birth rates in the U.S., the rise of anti-intellectualism, and the rollback of reproductive rights are having a profound impact on your child's potential college experience? How do we help prepare our children for the future when the world we know is crumbling before our eyes? In this episode, we talk with one of our favorite kiki partners and Associate Vice President for Equity & Community Inclusion at San Francisco State, Dr. Frederick Smith, about the changing landscape of higher education, the challenges, and strategies for Black families navigating the college experience for their teens.

    DBM Ep 71: Black Keisha, Black Mamas & Forever
    2025/09/03

    Dear Mama,

    What if I told you much of the growth our children may need to show up in the ways we're nurturing them to show up comes through falling in love? When we tell our children not to focus on love, are we parenting out of fear? What message does that send to our children about the priority to place on intimate relationships, and what generational impact does that have on our culture? How do we raise children who know how to love?

    In this raw and reflective episode, we take a deep dive into the Netflix series 'Forever,' using it as a powerful springboard to unpack the complexities of Black motherhood, teenage love, and generational parenting. We're talking parenting fears, the tightrope between nurturing and protecting our babies, and the real-life challenges that come with raising Black teens in a world that doesn't always love them back. Y'all know us! So honest storytelling, aha moments, and of course, plenty of laughter and love.

    We also get into:
    ✨The roots of catastrophic parenting styles and the fear of raising fuck boys
    ✨How generational trauma shows up at the dinner table (and in the group chat)
    ✨Teaching our children vulnerability & letting go
    ✨Why was Keisha's Daddy so triggering

    PLUS - Crystal gives a s/o to Mara Brock Akil for putting text on the screen, NeKisha questions Crystal is good at training real dogs or Ques, and Thea offers advice on how to live like we'll survive this moment in time. In our Black Mama Say segment for this episode, where we put our twist on sayings from Black mamas, and the saying we're twisting this episode is "Let Me Hush Though."

    2025/08/04
    Dear Mama, What if I told you the saying, "real gs move in silence is killing your dream? What if I told you to tell everyone and anyone you know what you want to do? What if I told you your notes app and Evernote are the keys to the manifestation of your dreams? What if I told you every time we tell our stories, we reclaim what was stolen? Every time we create, we declare: We are still here. These are our takeaways from our conversation with prolific children's book author, Alliah Agostini, who wrote The Juneteenth Story: Celebrating the End of Slavery in the United States & one of my favorite children's books, Great Idea Malia. In this episode, we explore the intersections of Black motherhood, creativity, community, and freedom. Alliah provides invaluable insights for other Black mama creatives, encouraging them to trust their journey and to navigate the world of storytelling with authenticity and courage. Her experience is a testament to the power of community and culture as a treasure trove of inspiration. We get real about: ✨Complexities of Black culture ✨The importance of always telling our stories, but especially right now ✨Handling critique and nurturing creativity ✨Building community and managing ideas PLUS - If you're looking for some hope right now. We got you. In our Black Mama Say segment, where we put our own twist on sayings from Black Mamas, we talk about what's giving us hope while this country is on fire.

    Dear Mama,

    What if I told you your mess tells a story, and your clutter can block your clarity? What if I told you to reframe cleaning as a way to express gratitude, practice self-care, and create a sacred space where your spirit can operate effortlessly and creativity flows freely?

    2025/05/02
    Dear Mama, What if I told you Black mamas aren't superheroes, that the cape is choking us, and our backs are brittle? What if I told you motherhood ain't killing us, though, but the narratives we buy into hook, line, and sinker are? What if you had the option not to be the primary custodial parent? Would you decline out of obligation to the belief that a good Black mama would never choose to leave their children in the care of others, even the other parent? How does a Black mother respond when what's best for her or her destiny clashes with cultural norms? In this Mother's Day episode, we speak with Erica Michelle Freeman of Sisters In Loss Podcast about the complexities and challenges of non-custodial parenting and Black motherhood. When Erica and her husband decided to divorce, they also agreed to shared custody. Each parent would have primary custody for 3 years of their son Maxwell who was diagnosed with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy 10 years ago. We dive into: ✨Confronting societal norms and cultural stigmas ✨Navigating health and care decisions for children with special needs as a noncustodial parent ✨Historical trauma and Black motherhood ✨Renegotiating Black motherhood PLUS - Crystal and perimenopause are NOT friends, especially under the current administration, and Thea is in search of Jill Stein. In our Black Mama Say segment for this episode, where we put our twist on sayings from Black mamas, and the saying we're twisting this episode is "Oh, you got time for dat." ABOUT ERICA M.
