About this listen
In this episode, Host Makayla Rivera alongside Archives Lead Gabrielle and TBR Director Jasmine Patrick explore the historical evolution of Black Americans from commodities under slavery to participants in capitalism, questioning whether true liberation can exist within a system built on exploitation. The group critiques the commodification of "Black Excellence" and the rise of respectability politics, highlighting how elitism and capitalism undermine collective uplift. Ultimately, the episode asks whether freedom lies in reforming the system or building a new one rooted in community and sisterhood. Contributions made by Communications Lead Gabrielle Dandridge
