This week we are joined by singer + songwriter, Chloé Marie, to marinate and observe the contents of generational black trauma and how it has played a key role in the unmatched execution of black music and culture.
Announcements:
J.Mix sounds the alarm on the National WWII Museum knowingly cropping her out of the picture of their most recent Christmas-inspired advertisement. And she also announces the winners of TSAM's first-ever A.W.A.R.E. Causes giveaway.
