Show Notes

DISCLAIMER: Dr. Megan-Brette Hamilton produced this podcast in her own personal capacity. The views expressed are her own and do not necessarily represent the views of any organization with which she is affiliated.


In this episode of HBC podcast by MB, I talk to childhood friend, Chris Love. Our engaging conversation leads me to highlight the connection between language and music and how Blackness is not one-dimensional. 


Chris Love is a tribal attorney and unapologetic reproductive justice advocate. Chris has dedicated her entire legal career to serving tribal governments and enterprises in Arizona and throughout the Southwest. Chris proudly serves as the Board Chair for Planned Parenthood Advocates of Arizona, the political advocacy and education organization that supports the work of Planned Parenthood health clinics and aspires to create a political atmosphere where abortion will remain safe, legal, and accessible in all 50 states. Chris also volunteers for the City of Chandler, which she has called home for 20 years, as an appointee on the City’s Merit Board. Most recently, Emerge Arizona recognized Chris as its 2019 Change Maker of the Year for her community advocacy work. In her free time, Chris kicks back with her husband and 3 kids or partakes in her new COVID coping hobby of making miniature houses.
