    Nikki sits down with long time friend BN to talk about the differences between living in Austin and Portland as a Black Woman. They also dig into lock down sanity tips, reparations, dismantling systems, and more. Truly from earrings, to "Black is King" this conversation is a smattering of laughs and truths. 


    **Quick fact check, Nikki says Tulla is from Austin, but she is from Denton, TX.
