S1E20- The Black Woman

Malcolm X excerpt from his speech in 1962. "The most disrespected woman in America, is the black woman. The most un-protected person in America is the black woman. The most neglected person in America, is the black woman."

Malcolm X excerpt from his speech in 1962. “The most disrespected woman in America, is the black woman. The most un-protected person in America is the black woman. The most neglected person in America, is the black woman.” Georgette and Snap open up the show with the famous X quote as they discuss Jazmine Barnes, the 7 year old that was shot and killed due to alleged mistaken identity in Houston, clemency and justice for Cyntoia Brown, and Birmingham civil rights institute rescinding Angela Davis' honor. This episode was recorded before Angela Davis' response. They also get into the last time they did something for the first time including Georgette taking swimming lessons as an adult.
