About this listen

 “Reeves Reflection” dives deep into the moments, experiences, and histories that shape our understanding of the world and ourselves. In this episode, we explore the enduring power of words and cultural respect in the African-American community. Through personal family stories and historical insights, we unpack how language has been used to honor, diminish, and reinforce societal hierarchies.

Join me as I reflect on my mother’s poignant memories of the Jim Crow era, the tradition of addressing elders with reverence, and the subtle but lasting impact of coded language in America. Let’s explore how the past continues to shape our present and how we can create a more inclusive future through awareness and intentionality in our words.
Listen, reflect, and grow with “Reeves Reflection.”
