Show Notes

Heads up: There are some spoilers in this episode. If you care, pay to see the movie first.

In this episode, I address some of the overarching themes in the feature film Queen & Slim. While I’m not a movie critic, I can appreciate social messaging that is woven into pieces of art and the challenges they bring to light. Some of the themes I address in this episode are black love, black police, protecting black life at all costs, black businesses, black community building, trusting black people, and white allies.

Disclaimer: I, in no way, advocate violence. I do, however, encourage all innocent people to survive in the face of mortal harm. Self preservation is, at our core, instinctive.
