Don't Come for My Black Card - It Cannot be Revoked

09/07/20 • 43 min

Episode 19: Have you ever played the game Black card Revoked? It basically celebrates popular American Black culture. Well, as you may know, there are many different Black experiences in America and not everyone had the same pop culture exposure growing up. Which brings us to today's episode with MProper Mimi host Mimi Jacks and Kristal Adams co-host of the Black Card Rehab podcast. Listen as we chat about some of our Black card experiences and stories of how it feels sometimes to be left out of cultural references. We are learning though! And it's fun to relive some of our hilarious memories together. No one should feel like their Black experience isn't Black enough and we are comfortable knowing our Black cards cannot be revoked.
