Description

TRA-Show InfoThe Rolling Archives Podcast collection of stories and conversations about Black women and girls’ past-present-future selves. While distinctions across Black girls and women’s childhood, adolescence, and adulthood may deserve their own recognition, The Rolling Archives embodies and honors reoccurring memories of Black girlhood as foundational sites of joy, exploration, meaning making, and life-affirming practices on a non-linear trajectory for Black women and girls. The Rolling Archives offers space for Black girls and women to reflect on, engage, and sit with these moments that have inspired and informed their current journeys, practices, and the formation of spaces that nurture their moments of living. Hosted by Ashley Smith-Purviance whose research on Black girlhood has grown into a platform for Black women and girls to speak freely to talk about their lives and experiences, to bridge the connection between generations and education levels, to create a meaningful community.    The Rolling Archives Podcast collection of stories and conversations about Black women and girls’ past-present-future selves.

Justice 4 Black Girls with Brianna Baker

In this deeply affirming and expansive conversation, Ashley sits down with educator, organizer, and Justice for Black Girls founder Brianna Baker to explore what it means to reclaim Black girlhood, build liberatory spaces, and create institutions where Black girls are not only protected — but deeply loved, heard, and celebrated. Together, they reflect on the transformative power of Black girl spaces, the tension between grief and joy in Black girlhood, and the urgency of building worlds where Black girls can exist freely on their own terms. As you dive into this conversation, ask yourself “If you had an opportunity to put Black girlhood studies into action or even return to your younger self and ask what she desired most when growing up, what might that look like for you?” Connect with Brianna Baker and Justice For Black Girls: https://instagram.com/justice4blackgirls [https://instagram.com/justice4blackgirls] ; https://justiceforblackgirls.com [https://justiceforblackgirls.com]
