This particular radio show blew my mind. It was one of the most powerful shows about healing on sexual abuse that I have heard in a long time. The raw honesty and intelligence expressed here on many levels was profound. Going to send to every survivor I know but everyone should hear this. This incest epidemic is hurting all of us every day and it is a show like this that begins to wake us up. Thank you Aishah, Gwendolin, and Esther for making this possible. This is the change and the light that is needed.

The Spin: revolutionary love, emotional justice, black masculinities. The Dyson-West fall out continues, THE SPIN talks: emotionality, honesty, transforming our movements, and black men speaking tough personal truths about toxic masculinities.
