Season 1: EP. 7: "Why Are You at the Club with a 2-week-old Baby at Home??"

Radio Caña Negra

"Ain't-Shit" Bro Code, Performative Oppression, Power in Relationships, and the Usual Anti-Black Latinos.

"Issa shoulda had a Latina friend" goofball analysis, people who are not "of the people" speaking for the people and maligning the same people they perform activism for, “Baby mothers" as the best organizers, men trapping women with babies and other reproductive realities in Latin America, including the lack of information and the case of a 12-year-old taking headache medicine (panadol) to stop a pregnancy, and folks feigning struggle for an audience.
We air out a Panamanian journalist that used her platform to malign a fellow Black woman and offer her up to be disparaged on her social media platforms, a panel of non-Latinos giving an analysis of Latin American politics and life, men not holding other men accountable through "ain't shit" bro code, mushroom babies, "air semen," power in relationships, generational differences in a culture of oversharing, and the way a 7-year-old and a duck taught us how unwitting impact can spread, simply by being ourselves and more.
The topic list is long but all fuckery is surprisingly connected. Who knew? We sure did. Take a walk with us.

P.S. The filmmaker mentioned is Nikyatu Jusu, her film "Suicide by Sunlight" is streaming here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRR-0IcKLd8
