4. Black

On this episode of Speakeasy with Denene, we give you a glimpse into two generations of blackness. Host Denene Millner talks with her daughters about their own experiences coming of age as young black women. Then, she sits down with author Damon Young, who says living while black is an extreme sport. Finally, Atlanta-based spoken word artist Theresa tha S.O.N.G.B.I.R.D. gives a breath-taking performance of her popular poem, You So Black.
