Revolutionary Baddies Podcast
Revolutionary Baddies Podcast seeks to join the legacy of uplifting the individual and the masses through connecting revolutionary ideas and practices to our everyday lives. As self declared baddies, we seek to honor the feminist tradition of women who boldly lead, teach, and build on our own terms. Revolutionary Baddies Podcast seeks to deconstruct the large idea of revolution to make it palatable and approachable for our people from all walks of life. You don’t need a degree nor an entire book collection to understand what freedom means and what lack thereof feels like. RB Podcast will deliver knowledge through literary based discussions, street stories of our lived experiences, keke’n, and narratives specifically crafted to influence our audience to engage in the struggle for liberation, while celebrating our individuality in the movement.

Abolition Now! Let's Get Back to the Drawing Board
Happy Black August!! Welcome to the beginning of Revolutionary Baddies Podcast Black August Series. This month, Brittany and Dee Dee have crafted a series of episodes dedicated to the Black August Tradition. Black August is an annual commemoration of Black radical resistance throughout our history. From the Nat Turner Rebellion to the attempted escape and assassination of political prisoner John Jackson. Black August is a necessary charge to the radical movement for more discipline, awareness, and education in the fight to free ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS and continue the struggle against colonialism. In this episode, RB makes the special announcement you’ve been waiting for but you gotta tap in. Black August is an opportunity for all of us to speak more clearly and learn more thoroughly what prison and police abolition could look like in this country and what our role is in it. Dee Dee shares some examples of abolition organizing happening and how the work of abolition is truly about building, not just destroying. The hope for the Black August is that the listeners walk away with a sense of pride in the traditions created by Black Americans for honoring our resistance, and a desire for building a more just future for all.
