We’re back in the booth after a month away. Kevin and Angela dig into the messy, layered realities behind identity politics, and why we don’t expect much from folks like Bernie Sanders.

This isn’t just theory. We unpack how identity politics often ends up weaponized within the Black community, creating infighting instead of collective power. From how we talk about victims like Megan Thee Stallion and Cassie Ventura, to how we internalize and perform respectability.


✊🏾 What happens when "representation" becomes a substitute for justice?

🗳️ What does it mean when "progressive" politics still won’t protect Black women?

🔥 And what could we build if we harnessed identity politics as a tool for collective power instead of division?


We’re cutting through the noise, just real talk rooted in love, truth, and unapologetic clarity.
