  • Divided by Design: How Misinformation Fuels Gender Wars in the Diaspora
    Dec 23 2025

    Why does it feel like Black men and Black women are constantly at odds online? And why do those loud internet battles rarely reflect real life?

    In this episode of Ladies of Sosa, we unpack how misinformation and disinformation are intentionally fueling gender wars across the Black diaspora. From viral relationship takes and cherry-picked statistics to rage-bait podcasts and social media algorithms, we explore how false and exaggerated narratives are shaping how we see each other—and ourselves.

    We break down the difference between misinformation and disinformation in plain language, trace how historical trauma and media manipulation make our communities especially vulnerable, and examine who actually benefits when Black men and women are divided. Most importantly, we talk about the real-life impact: dating mistrust, internalized misogynoir and misandry, cultural shame, and growing generational gaps.

    This conversation isn’t about silencing real issues or avoiding accountability. It’s about learning how to spot manipulation, reclaim our stories, and move toward healthier, more honest conversations rooted in truth, context, and community healing.

    If you’ve ever felt confused, frustrated, or exhausted by online gender discourse, this episode is for you.

    Because division didn’t happen by accident—and healing won’t either.

  • The Diddy Documentary and Textbook Toxic Masculinity - Full Review and Breakdown
    Dec 16 2025

    In this episode of Ladies of Sosa, we unpack Netflix’s documentary The Reckoning, which takes a hard look at decades of allegations surrounding music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs.

    We break down the claims featured in the documentary — including allegations of sexual assault, coercion, intimidation, career sabotage, and the use of power to silence survivors — while clearly separating accusations from proven facts. More importantly, we explore the bigger picture: how fame, wealth, and influence can create environments where harm goes unchecked and voices are ignored.

    This is not about internet rumors or trial-by-social-media. It’s a conversation about power, accountability, and the systems that protect brands instead of people. We also discuss why survivors often aren’t believed, why silence is rewarded, and what real accountability should look like in the music industry and beyond.

    ⚠️ Content warning: This episode includes discussions of abuse and sexual violence. Listener discretion is advised.
