No, this ain't Karate. I can't lay you out but I can learn ya somethin'. My name is Lauren, and on this podcast, we talk about whatever the hell is on my mind to tell as a Black and Proud Southern Belle. I'm an educator, and I try to infuse everything with a smidge of history. Books, cultural commentary, media, trending topics, ideologies, celebrities, family, relationships, religion, short stories, wellness, music, (Black) history, beauty, fashion, education...throw it all in the buggy!
