The Ugly ‘E’ Word

Wellness and Nature pairs as perfectly as peanut butter and jelly. Getting into Nature is often an all-natural remedy for many of life’s ills, but the Great Outdoors has not always been nice to Black People. On today’s episode, we are tackling the stereotype of why Black people don’t camp (and other similar stereotypes) to see where they came from, why they persist, and how we can fight to dead them.&nbsp; Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Alana- Serius Innovation- Black Owned Performance Gear Brand with a commitment to innovation and excellence (<a href="http://www.serius.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.serius.com</a>)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jac- No Tox Life (@notoxlife)- Mother &amp; Daughter team making vegan body + home products(<a href="http://notoxlife.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">notoxlife.com</a>) Keep Up With Latria Graham <a href="http://www.latriagraham.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.latriagraham.com</a>@LatriaGraham&nbsp; Read We’re Here.

When you are a woman of color, body hair is more than biology. It’s political! The choice to keep it or cut is impacts the way that society views us &amp; our hygiene levels. While we are in the throws of the No- Shaving Feminist movement, that choice is easier to make for some than for others. In this episode, Jack &amp; Lanz examine the political and social connotations that come with being a hairy or hairless woman of color. Find us on Instagram: @blackandyellowpodcastAlana J.
