Cosmonauts | Day 12 | Moms Mabley
March 17, 2021 12:00 - 41 minutes - 28.4 MBMoms Mabley was brilliant at disrupting the status quo with perfectly portioned bits of truth. It is the recipe of so many Black mothers, aunties, and grandmothers. Closeted geniuses, with disarming side glances, glints of spiritual insight, and easy laughs filled with ancient discernment. We have a wealth of funny in our families and Moms Mabley showed it to the world. Dressed as a toothless grandmother - using the force and bravery of her own grandmother as inspiration - she disarmed the w...
Cosmonauts | Day 11 | Afeni Shakur
March 16, 2021 19:00 - 38 minutes - 26.5 MBDear Mamas. Dear Black mothers. Dear Black women who are raising Black children in this hostile world. You are appreciated. You are on the frontlines doing the most critical work, raising up an army of Black boys and girls whose heads will not be bowed, whose names command respect, whose legacy will be one of resistance and joy. Thank you. Today we tell the story of Afeni Shakur. Known to the world as the mother of the late great Tupac Shakur. She was a revolutionary doing revolutionary wor...
Cosmonauts | Day 10 | Phillis Wheatley
March 15, 2021 11:00 - 36 minutes - 25 MBShe was born free on October 26, 1775. Kidnapped at 7. Stuffed in the bowels of a ship named The Phillis and enslaved by a Bostonian family named the Wheatley's. So that is what they called her, Phillis Wheatley. They stole her body and her name, but they could not steal her mind. She mastered the English language in mere months. Then Greek and Latin too. A genius. She went on to become the first Black woman or man in America to publish a book. It was a book of poetry. But do not reduce her ...
Cosmonauts | Day 9 | Combahee River Collective
March 13, 2021 15:00 - 29 minutes - 20.4 MBToday we call the names of the women who do the work. The women who sit on committees, who write papers, edit publications, build coalitions, canvass neighborhoods, attend city council meetings, read and reread all the books. The women who study, learn, and then pass on the knowledge to the rest of us – so that there is a record of what has been and a strategy for a way forward. You too are dreamers and weavers. You are the idea makers. You are the bullhorns and today’s walk is for you. Tune...
Cosmonauts | Day 8 | Harriet Tubman
March 11, 2021 16:00 - 35 minutes - 24.5 MBHold the presses doggonit. Ain’t no way. Ain’t no waaaay! It’s Harriet Tubman Day! Congress designated today, March 10th which is the day our foremother died in 1915, as a commemorative holiday. (Should we start a petition to make it a federal holiday? Like Veterans’ Day?...to honor the sacrifices and labor of Black women? I ain’t playing. Think about it. Let's start by supporting this petition to accelerate the printing of Harriet Tubman’s portrait on the $20 bill!). Tune in today for a l...
Cosmonauts | Day 7 | Sister Souljah
March 10, 2021 16:00 - 35 minutes - 24.6 MBThey tried to intimidate her. Tried to demonize her. Tried to silence her voice. They tried to do the same thing that they try and do with most young Black girl geniuses in this world – extinguish our fire. But, Sister Souljah could not be stopped. She spoke truth to power. Gave voice to generations of young Black youth, and continues to organize against systems of power and oppression. Today’s walk is a celebration. A virtual parade down the main street of every hood in America to honor the...
Cosmonauts | Day 6 | Nefertiti
March 09, 2021 16:00 - 33 minutes - 23.4 MBLet’s face it. Any time anyone mentions the name Nefertiti, we all picture the beautiful Iman in the Remember the Time video - or maybe you immediately go to the gold-plated knocker earrings that celebrate her glorious profile. ...but what do we reeeeally know about the Queen? Tune in today to learn exactly why there was a Nefertiti revival in every Black neighborhood in America circa 1991, precisely 3,000 years after her dramatic death in ancient Egypt. Roll your shoulders back and adjust y...
Cosmonauts | Day 5 | Gladys Bentley
March 06, 2021 17:00 - 33 minutes - 23.1 MBThe original. Before Nikki, before Cardi, before Kim. Long before Young M.A. was seducing women out of their Fashion Nova, and Meg made that congressman clutch his pearls over WAP, there was Gladys Bentley. An open lesbian, a cross-dressing performer whose raunchy act and lewd lyrics were both the talk of the town and the hottest ticket around. A darling of the Harlem Renaissance, Gladys Bentley was once the richest Black woman in America. A blues singer who got her start singing at rent par...
Cosmonauts | Day 4 | Celia Cruz
March 05, 2021 14:00 - 36 minutes - 25.3 MBHer mother told her that she was singing before she could hold her head up. Calling at birth. An air bender. And on any given Sunday, if you walk through the right neighborhood at precisely the right time, you’ll hear it. ...just behind the smell of fresh laundry and the sizzle of Sazón, you feel it coming. "¡Azúuucar!" Every sound system must bow. The clap of her voice is more ancient than the rivers of Benin. Celia Cruz gave us pathways home. She was our clave, the pulse of our diaspora, o...
Cosmonauts | Day 3 | Aretha Franklin
March 04, 2021 16:00 - 34 minutes - 23.5 MBThis is the story that you need today. A royal story. A queen story. A story about taking up space, owning your gifts, and using your voice. A story about overcoming the worst to become the best to ever do it. A history lesson on courage. A demonstration on Blackness. A journey through the life of the greatest singer of all time. This is the story of Aretha Franklin. Ain’t no way (ha!) you'll listen without getting your whole life. There is so much to be said and so much to learn from this ...
Cosmonauts | Day 2 | Josephine Baker
March 03, 2021 16:00 - 33 minutes - 23 MBShe was mesmerizing. The very embodiment of liberation. Sexual...Political. Financial. Free... Josephine Baker taught desire to a colonized world. Her face, a masterclass. And her body - a disruption. At the dawn of silent films, her success rang in a renaissance, the jazz age - modernity itself. French women literally hurt themselves trying to achieve the Josephine Baker look. Shellacked hair. Copper skin. She was the most photographed woman in the world. And the most highly paid. A globa...
Cosmonauts | Day 1 | Cicely Tyson
March 02, 2021 16:00 - 43 minutes - 30.2 MBCicely Tyson was a Cosmonaut. A woman before her time. Her work was exquisite. It broke down barriers and opened up doors. The pioneer of "Black is Beautiful." A woman whose ebony skin and complex braid patterns disarmed the world and made space for the rest of us to show up in our unique boldness. A woman who knew how to use her voice and often used it to remind all of us to adjust our crowns. In her, we saw the best version of ourselves and the elegance and grace our own mothers and grand...

Prayer Edition | Day 20 | Bishop Tutu
November 03, 2020 07:00 - 56 minutes - 38.7 MBWe watched him forgive, for all of us. Today, Bishop Tutu is 89 years old and is still changing the moral climate of the world. In 1996, this spiritual titan - who is a survivor of Apartheid - proceeded over the Truth and Reconciliation Commission hearings. Together, we listened to gruesome stories of torture and unthinkable confessions of death squads. The entire concept was radical - truth for freedom. Let go of retribution to restore justice. Bring mass healing for all.It was a ma...

Prayer Edition | Day 18 | Bob Marley
October 30, 2020 14:00 - 53 minutes - 37.1 MBMany of us know the story of Bob Marley. He was born in St. Ann, Jamaica to a Syrian Jewish man and an African woman. He struggled to find his place in the world. Through that struggle, he found a voice that would help liberate millions around the world. Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, Max Romeo, and scores of other musicians would serve as spiritual vessels for a powerful message of liberation and love for African people across the diaspora. We also know that Bob Marley was sho...
Prayer Edition | Day 17 | Malcolm X & The Shabazz Family
October 29, 2020 05:00 - 50 minutes - 34.8 MB“I say this to you, as I say to myself: If Malcolm and his message, so strong, so bright and so pure, was too good for those of us who have already reached manhood, there is a generation who is not yet spoiled, not yet degutted, not yet de-bold, not yet emasculated, who when they come into the light of this truth will rise up and redeem him and us and all the rest of the world. That is the meaning of Malcolm X.” - Ossie Davis We are that generation. We are ready to rise up. Join us live o...
Prayer Edition | Day 16 | The King Family
October 28, 2020 02:00 - 56 minutes - 39.1 MB21 million of us may lose healthcare. 21 million. Rather than folding into rage, arguing perspectives, or waxing philosophical, let's get in the streets. Join us today, for a special edition of Black History Bootcamp to listen to the words of one of the most brilliant political organizers in history. Dr. King called us to love one another AND demand "a radical redistribution of political and economic power." He said, "Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health is the most shockin...
Prayer Edition | Day 15 | Stevie Wonder

Prayer Edition | Day 13 | Reverend Dr. Pauli Murray
October 22, 2020 21:00 - 53 minutes - 37.1 MBProphecy I sing of a new American Separate from all others, Yet enlarged and diminished by all others. I am the child of kings and serfs, freemen and slaves, Having neither superiors nor inferiors, Progeny of all colors, all cultures, all systems, all beliefs. I have been enslaved, yet my spirit is unbound. I have been cast aside, but I sparkle in the darkness. I have been slain but live on in the river of history. I seek no conquest, no wealth, no power, no revenge: I seek only discovery Of...

From that moment, he dedicated his life to a fervent practice of spiritual awakening. And because God i...
