Our Topic is “The Black Woman Experience in America” in honor of February being Black History Month.  This is a frank & in-depth panel discussion on what it is to be a Black Woman in today's society.  This is part two of a three-part series.  Part two will focus on “Respectability Politics”, “African American Vernacular English (AAVE) vs. Standard American English (SAE)” & “Code-Switching”. 

We are honored to be joined again with our Special Guest – Blaise - Host of (2) YouTube Channels:
