In this episode, Julia Portela and Imani G celebrate Juneteenth with a joyful and unfiltered Black Baddie Draft, spotlighting rising stars in film, music, and pop culture. From the legacy of hip hop to horror obsessions, Broadway’s influence, and Marvel’s most iconic characters, they explore how media shapes identity and representation. The convo flows through indie lit, activism, and the power of self-investment — plus hot takes on Lizzo’s return, disco revival, and why the "white couch era" might be the new dream. Expect laughter, depth, and a whole lot of Black excellence.
