Revolutionary Baddies Podcast
Revolutionary Baddies Podcast seeks to join the legacy of uplifting the individual and the masses through connecting revolutionary ideas and practices to our everyday lives. As self declared baddies, we seek to honor the feminist tradition of women who boldly lead, teach, and build on our own terms. Revolutionary Baddies Podcast seeks to deconstruct the large idea of revolution to make it palatable and approachable for our people from all walks of life. You don’t need a degree nor an entire book collection to understand what freedom means and what lack thereof feels like. RB Podcast will deliver knowledge through literary based discussions, street stories of our lived experiences, keke’n, and narratives specifically crafted to influence our audience to engage in the struggle for liberation, while celebrating our individuality in the movement.

The People's Crusader: Mrs. Ida B. Wells-Barnett

“The more I studied the situation, the more I was convinced that the Southerner had never gotten over his resentment that the Negro was no longer his plaything, his servant, and his source of income.”- Ida B. Wells-Barnett. In this episode, Revolutionary Baddies attempts to highlight and convert new fans of Ida B. Wells-Barnett. Wells-Barnett is a giant in both Black history and Women’s history equally, and also single-handedly ended lynchings in the United States. Her story is one of profound bravery, skill, and compassion for Black people and the lives we live in a country built to hate us. Her writings and publications demanded dignity and respect from all people and she believed in collectivised freedom. Ida is a guide for all of us, that we must do everything within our power to do and to keep going. There is so much more to cover and uncover about her. We honor her love, labor, and sacrifice. Thank you Mrs. Ida B. Wells-Barnett.
