The Black barbershop is a staple in the Black community. It's a safe space for Black men to be themselves, vent, talk shit, and establish community with Black men of all ages. However, as much as some of us love the Black barbershop and regard it so, historically it has not been a safe space for ALL black people as much as we'd like to think.
This week on the show we break down our experiences in the barbershop (the good, the bad, and the Bibby), the types of barbers in the shop, the feeling of invincibility that accompanies a fresh cut and also why the barbershop has not always been safe space for Black women and our brothers in the LGBTQ community.
