Surviving Fundamentalism is Black Liberation Podcast about a journey through the Black Christian faith to mental decolonization and spiritual deconstruction. On this show, I freely discuss my very long, personal journey with leaving Islam, converting to Christianity, becoming a minister/teacher/evangelist, joining a cult, denouncing the cult, and continuing the never-ending work of radical self-love and liberation.

We Define Holy Differently: The Plight of Black Women & Femmes

In this season three opener, I discuss Joel Leon's tweet regarding his mother and her will to make ends meet for her children, which he defines as "HOLY". During the episode, we deconstruct together what many of us in fundamentalism have been taught about the terms "holy" and "holiness" and how they have been used to demonize Black and Brown poor folk for centuries in this country.
