we're closing out the season with a wine down. thank you all for tuning in with us and supporting us on this ride. we're looking forward to season two but this break is so necessary!
show notes:
while discussing rita moreno, i—@brinnoire—referenced the Grapevine's most recent episode (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIg6if0NBlY)
during the conversation about the colonization of Black beauty, @ayeshakfaines paraphrased a passage from moreno's memoir. while editing this episode, i learned that Ayesha recently passed away. The Grapevine is an amazing platform that amplifies the voices of some of my favorite Black millennials. Ayesha K Faines was top tier and she will be deeply missed.
also, historian Lyra Monteiro's interview about Lin Manuel Miranda's 'Hamilton' can be read here: https://slate.com/culture/2016/04/a-hamilton-critic-on-why-the-musical-isnt-so-revolutionary.html
