  • Resumen

  • In this excellent episode, Nancy and Jose are joined in the studio by Cheryl Morrow, a San Diego Community Activist, CEO of California Curls, and the Founder of the San Diego Monitor News Network. She talks about her varied pursuits and her opinions on social concerns. In fact, Cheryl's podcasts are all dedicated to dispelling falsehoods. She draws attention to the book "Imperial Leather," which examines the psychological and historical dimensions of oppression, with a focus on gender dynamics. Cheryl finds the book's explanations of how cultural standards have evolved to oppress women to be incredibly fascinating and instructive.

    The significant linkages that exist between conversations about Afro hair and more general concerns of freedom and cultural expression are highlighted by Cheryl's talk. She describes how the Afro hairstyle evolved into a representation of greater social acceptance and individual independence once it was incorporated into military standards. Cheryl demonstrates how seemingly specialized cultural issues may have a global resonance and have unanticipated effects on a variety of populations.

    When talking about her own path, Cheryl considers carrying on her parents' legacy and her changing position as a stakeholder in the community. In contrast to traditional activism, she characterizes her approach as solution-focused and emphasizes the role of the private sector in resolving public challenges. Cheryl thinks the private sector can frequently solve societal issues more quickly and effectively by eschewing the traps of self-interest and bureaucracy.
