Marcie Alvis-Walker, Tasha Hunter & Lettie Shumate
In this final episode of the four-part series celebrating Black Women, I am joined once again joined by Marcie Alvis-Walker from @blackcoffeewithwhitefriends and special guests: author and therapist; Tasha Hunter, and Historian; Lettie Shumate from @sincerely.lettie.
In this conversation, we continue our discussion about Black women throughout our history focusing on Black women as our first ladies of democracy.
From Fannie Lou Hammer to Michelle Obama to Kamala Harris, we discuss the the role of black women in the White House and how America has typecast the roles they can and can not play in our democracy. But as we share in this episode, once again Black women have broken through that type-casting and plotted their own freedom with their history of political rebellion and rising above the status quo.
