What's up, man?

Been a lot of conversation around the safety of Black women.

Do you think protection is just physical, or does it go deeper than that?

Um, first of all, I wanna say this.

You know, we, uh, we, we talk a lot on this pod.

We express a lot of things, and some of the things we talk about, you know, are women-based, and, and, and our interactions.

I don't want for nobody to ever think that, um, our energy is to ever demean any Black woman or anything, right? So I just wanna throw that out there.

We all come from Black women.

Um, we all got kids, so I just wanna express that first and foremost.

I know that-

And it's Black women that run this show

... absolutely.

Black, Black women run the show.

But I know we get a little rough and sometimes with ...

You know, we joking and we talking and, you know, and especially me sometimes.

You know, I, I've had awkward, weird experiences.

But, um, but at, at, at the same time, as far as what, what the topic is about, um, it's a lot been happening, right? So we, we turn on the news, we turn on Instagram, social media, we seeing all these Black women dying, going on trips, dying, or getting killed or, or whatever.

I think this is a, is a, is a, is a time where people gotta actually really pay attention to what's going on.

You know, Black women, Black men, period.

You know?

We, we need to protect our Black women, and the question being said, is it, uh, mental or is it physical? I think it's a bit of both.

Uh, of course they would say, uh, physical is how you protect yourself, but mental is just as, i- is just as, is just as important.

Being, uh, aware of your surroundings, certain things that you always need to be on point about, that's a mental aspect of protecting yourself, [crosstalk]

But how do you pro- how do you protect a Black woman mentally?

Making them...
