Candid Convo w Talina Jones- Black Fem, Social Justice in The Black Community

RISING CNY

(Episode semented in parts 45m) Lekia sits with Activist, Black Feminist Talina Jones in Syracuse, NY. Talina's work has progressively impacted state and local policy particularly for children with intellectual disabilities. Her contribution to social change in her community is nothing short of amazing and she has shared in historic and monumentental changes the SCSD. This is an intriguingly candid Q&A convo of enticing perspectives on social justice progress, personal experiences, moving forward, the James Baldwin/Nikkin Giovanni convo, the much needed internal work within the black community, and more. Played back I hear 2 black American girls building and hoping you hear and it stimulates your thinking, ideas, dialogue and more conversation to build off of from where you are.
