64. Esther Armah on Global Blackness, Racial Healing and Revolutionary Black Grace

Dear Diaspora

Welcome to the latest episode of Dear Diaspora! I had the pleasure of speaking with Esther Armah, a creative powerhouse and author of the book Emotional Justice: A Roadmap for Racial Healing.

Tune in to hear us discuss her concept of "revolutionary Black grace," which she describes as a way to honor our unique Blackness while connecting it to a global Blackness. We dive into what it looks like in practice, how we can use it to end the “diaspora wars," and how we can all work to replace judgment with compassionate curiosity.

Oh, and listen until the end for a brief podcast/life update!
