It is the last episode of the season and what better way to end a season than with a bang!

I had the great pleasure of interviewing Historian and Academic, Professor Rudolph Ware and I got to do what I love to do the most: tackle difficult subjects!

And for this episode we discussed colonization and its impacts on BIPOC communities in the U.S. and globally, specifically how colonization affects how we see ourselves in the context of the bigger picture. Professor Ware breaks down how colonization created racial and social hierarchies around the world and how we are  seeing the affects of it even now.

This episode is absolutely essential for all those who want to start their journey of decolonization and standing in their own power as members of BIPOC communities!
