2020 was filled with messages urging people to support Black owned businesses as a way to combat racism, increase the Black dollar, and support Black communities.

Chinese New Year is tomorrow! Happy Year Of The Ox! And Mardi Gras is next week. These two cultural holidays will likely look different, but it doesn’t have to taste different.

Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff seem to be the most talked about couple on the planet right now, and there is a very good reason for that. With our Madam Vice President being a Black and South Asian woman, the visual of her White Husband stepping into the role of Second Gentleman (as well as stepping back to let Harris lead and shine) disrupts the gender roles that we are commonly used to seeing. In this episode, we talk about how important the image of an interracial couple in public office is, what gender stereotypes we are rethinking, and how we can normalize those image of power and support going forward.Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is:Alana- Phillip Ashley Chocolates (@phillipashleychocolates)- Delicious, designer chocolate perfect for gifting!https://phillipashleychocolates.comJac- Scarlett Floral Designs (@teamscarlet)- Floral Designs and Custom Creations for you or a friend.http://www.scarletflowersdesigns.comFind us on Instagram:@blackandyellowpodcastAlana J.

Sleepovers are a rite of passage for most kids and teens, but not everyone attended sleepovers growing up. Some kids went to very few and when they did it was a *struggle* to get parents to agree to let them go, and some kids got to stay late (but not sleepover). In the episode, we are talking about slumber parties. Is not allowing your child to attend sleepovers an Asian thing? Are attending sleepovers necessary? Are sleepovers good for kids? We answer these questions and so many more.Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is:Jac- Kim + Ono (@kimandono_)- Handcrafted Kimono Robes of the Modern (Wo)men https://kimandono.com/Alana- Dreams and Jammies (@dreamsjammies)- Kids sleepwear line inspired by little Black and Brown girls https://dreamsandjammies.com/Find us on Instagram:@blackandyellowpodcastAlana J.

2021 is off to quite a start mostly because of the insurrection at our Nation’s Capital last week.

Broadway has been rocked, and not in the Queen musical kind of way. This Summer, Broadway BIPOC performers, writers, directors, and technicians banded together and wrote a letter to Broadway calling for change in an effort to make Broadway a more inclusive and actively anti-racist place for all employees. That letter began with the powerful words “Dear White American Theatre.” In this episode, we talk to a culture critic all about how Broadway is dealing with this letter, changes he has seen, and what the future holds for The Great White Way (no pun intended).Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is:Alana- Melanin Moments (@melanin_moments_)- wrapping paper featuring people of Color with a philanthropic twist (melaninmoments.com)Jac- Asian Veggies (@asian_veggies)- delicious, nutritious Asian veggies delivered to your door (asian-veggies.com)Keep Up With Jose Solis:Twitter: @josesolismayenListen to Token Theatre Friends Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/token-theatre-friends/id1516665246https://www.amer

Let’s be real. You can’t talk Wellness without mentioning yoga. While the Yoga Industry like to put forth a ‘Love and Light’ ethos, it also has problems with Cultural Erasure and Appropriation, Disability Inclusion, and White Capitalism.

Wellness and Nature pairs as perfectly as peanut butter and jelly. Getting into Nature is often an all-natural remedy for many of life’s ills, but the Great Outdoors has not always been nice to Black People. On today’s episode, we are tackling the stereotype of why Black people don’t camp (and other similar stereotypes) to see where they came from, why they persist, and how we can fight to dead them. Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is    1.    Alana- Serius Innovation- Black Owned Performance Gear Brand with a commitment to innovation and excellence (www.serius.com)    2.    Jac- No Tox Life (@notoxlife)- Mother & Daughter team making vegan body + home products(notoxlife.com)Keep Up With Latria Grahamwww.latriagraham.com@LatriaGraham Read We’re Here.
