    Service & Sacrifice: “Why Are Veterans Facing Homelessness?” with guest Suzanne Bond

    In this raw and revealing episode of A Prude Awakening, Jessica and Karmen break down the uncomfortable reality of veteran homelessness—a topic we all know exists but rarely talk about. Our hosts sit down with Suzanne Bond, CEO of Esperanza en Escalante, an organization dedicated to supporting veterans in need, to explore why so many who served our country end up on the streets. Suzanne sheds light on the systemic gaps, the emotional and mental toll, and the uncertain future as funding needs loom. From personal stories to policy breakdowns, we’re diving deep to ask the tough questions: How can we honor those who served if we fail to protect them here at home?

    Woke or Weaponized: Discussing Woke Culture with guest Jabari Davis

    In this thought-provoking episode of A Prude Awakening, Jessica and Karmen sit down with guest Jabari Davis to tackle the loaded concept of “wokeness” in 2024. What began as a call to stay aware of social injustice has become a hotly debated—and frequently misunderstood—term. Together, they dissect: Understanding What It Really Means to Be 'Woke':
Jabari helps us trace the history of "woke" from its roots to its present-day politicization. Why do some see it as a badge of awareness, while others view it as a political weapon? We look at how the term’s evolution impacts social justice. The Impact on Black Communities:
Is cultural appropriation becoming a performative checkbox, and what does this mean for Black communities? We dive into why aspects of Black culture feel commodified or diluted—and why this matters. The Politics of Identity in 2024: Woke Culture as a Campaign Strategy
With the election looming, candidates are eager to discuss “wokeness.” But is it genuine advocacy or empty rhetoric? Jabari shares insights on recognizing when political leaders advocate for change versus co-opting trends for votes. Listen in as we unpack the difference between woke-washing and real advocacy, and what it all means for voters in 2024.
