¡Sis! The Podcast Hey Aesha
-
- Gesellschaft und Kultur
Have you ever heard someone say, "I don't usually mess with females" in regards to forming friendships with other women? Why do some women feel this way? Is sisterhood as transformative as we believe it to be? Or is it all just hype? This podcast is an ode to sisterhood, BIPOC sisterhood.
We are going to do more than write a love letter to sisterhood. We will challenge sisterhood and deconstruct it. Let's take a journey through sisterhood together while holding it accountable. Let's invite those who have felt like they were on the outside of sisterhood into the sisterhood.
Take this journey with ¡Sis!
