The GIFT and CURSE of Kamala Harris’ Candidacy: Progress or Setback?

In this thought-provoking episode of the Broken Traditions Podcast, we delve into the Black community's reaction to Kamala Harris becoming the Democratic nominee for president. Titled 'Kamala Harris: The Gift and The Curse,' this episode is divided into two parts, examining the positive and negative aspects of her candidacy.

The Gift:

The political influence and unity of Black women.

The shift towards financially backing political candidates.

The move away from blind identity politics.

The Curse:

The lack of policy-based support for Harris.

The emerging divide between Black men and women.

The controversy over Harris's racial identity and the moving goalposts of 'Blackness.'

Join us as we hold up a mirror to Black culture and discuss the crucial steps needed to break away from toxic traditions. Tune in for a critical look at how we can move forward together.
