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.

I Respect Your Ambition, But You Gotta Have Vision
Happy Black August!! The final episode of this very special Black August series, Revolutionary Baddies delves into this question of the future. Generally, each episode is dedicated to honoring powerful history but our visions for the future can be just as powerful. Grounding in the words of brother George Jackson, “If we fail through fear and lack of aggressive imagination, then the slaves of the future will curse us, as we sometimes curse those of yesterday. I don’t want to die and leave a few sad songs and a hump in the ground as my only monument. I want to leave a world that is liberated..”. Who would you be if you were free? How can we envision our societies, hearts, minds, and behaviors beyond capitalism? So much of the violence, policing, punishment, colonization, and wars have been visions by people grounded in destruction and hegemony but what would the other side of this spectrum look like? We have the opportunity to bring the potential of a caring and just society to life, but we got to have VISION!!!
Question for our listeners-
Who would you be if you were free?
