    Vernacular: AAVE, Our Kind of Language

    When you think of our pattern of speech do you think what’s proper or improper; correct or incorrect; standard or unorthodox? In this episode we dive into vernacular and discuss African American Vernacular English. For decades African Americans have been stripped of our language and told the way we speak isn’t necessarily proper. But what’s united us over time has been our ability to adapt our speech with native tongue and the language that was mandated on our ancestors. As our way of speaking has become mainstream and acknowledge, we have to ask some tough questions. Should we gatekeep? Is it appropriation? Why should we code switch?

    Vicinity: A Little Nepotism Never Hurt Nobody

    Nepotism in the vicinity of how we shake and move as a community and are we reaping any benefits? Nepotism, root word nepos, a Latin term meaning nephew. Dating back to Middle Age, Catholic popes who’d taken chastity vows and had no offspring would hand their nephews positions of preference, as would a father to a son. Fast forward to today’s age and we can all think of instances of nepotism and its benefits. From Hollywood to the legacy preference in college admissions to the blatant lack of diversity within the NFL’s ownership. It’s happening! America’s most powerful dynasties keep it in the family, handing down wealth, power, business empires, and monarchies. What do you think about Nepotism within the black community? Do you believe there is more merit in starting from the bottom? Would you accept a head start? Do we embrace this ideology of bringing others up with us? Listen in, cause we want to hear your thoughts on the topic too. Don't forget to subscribe!

    Vamoose: Just a Friendly Ghost

    If getting to know people wasn't hard enough, ending a relationship of any kind can be even harder especially when there's no closer. Now imagine if one day things are fine and the next poof... vamoose... their gone! Ghosting, defined as abruptly cutting off contact with someone without any warning or explanation is as popular as crop tops. But is it ever appropriate? Have you been ghosted or are you the ghoster. Don't disappear now, let's talk about it. We want to hear from you too. Share your ghosting story in the comments, with us on IG, or Twitter.

    Village: It Takes A Good One To Raise A Child

    “It takes a Village to raise a child”. Derived from many African cultures, a proverb expressing the collective responsibility of the village to protect, educate and support each other for the greater good of the child; a blessing. If you know how our family structures have been disrupted for the benefits/profits/gains of others then you also know the impact it has on our societies, by design. Children need healthy interactions with other members of a community to help in cultivating reciprocity within. We know that there are pros and cons to everything, but how do we begin to take the old and make it new? Were you part of a larger family network of whom most could rear you? Or, did your parents say, “I wish another mother sucka would put their hands on my child”?  What parts do we keep and what parts do we throw away from our upbringing? Let’s have this discussion. This episode we have Tori’s cousin Kim as a guest.

    Vestige: Barely, But You Asking For Too Much

    We celebrate wins big and small in relationships but celebrating the bare minimums can prove problematic. Dre joins us to add a male's perspective on vestige relationships and shares his thoughts on why people sometimes think it’s okay to show up with the bare minimum. You have to show others how you want and expect to be treated. Sometimes we end up teaching the same lesson 2-3-5-8 times & we’re still there. Just teaching all the lessons. Is it worth it? Can you work it? HaHa... just saying after you teach the lesson and they still ain’t gettin it, is it time to move on or let that shit go? Furthermore, while you’re there take a look within too. What are “you” constantly complaining about, yet continuing to accept? If someone is treating you below your standard, do not accept just anything, demand your worth or let it go? Or, are you asking for too much? Let us know what you think in the comments.
