aflevering With Love from Harlem: The Cost of Choosing Love artwork

With Love from Harlem: The Cost of Choosing Love

This month, we're celebrating Women's History Month with a read that hit differently. "With Love from Harlem" by ReShonda Tate is the story of Hazel Scott: jazz prodigy, film star, civil rights warrior, and one of the most famous Black women in America. A woman who made history as the first Black person to host her own national television show. A woman who was brilliant, bold, and completely on fire. And then she met Adam Clayton Powell Jr. In this episode, we're getting into all of it: the love, the sacrifice, the cost of building your life inside someone else's ambition, and what it really means to choose yourself when everything around you is asking you not to. We're also talking about McCarthyism, erasure, and the devastating truth that Hazel Scott didn't just lose her show. She was nearly scrubbed from history entirely. This one got personal. And I think it might for you too. ⚠️ Spoiler alert: This episode discusses the full arc of the novel, including the ending. If you haven't finished the book yet, read it first and come back. I'll be here. Next month's read: Kin by Tayari Jones.

Aurora's Reckoning: Power, Pain, and Love in A Tropical Rebel Gets the Duke

She's a full-figured Dominican doctor in Victorian England. He's a newly titled Duke with something to prove. And together, they are absolutely not playing around. This month on The Ink is Black, we're diving into Adriana Herrera's A Tropical Rebel Gets the Duke, book four in the Las Leonas series, and honey, this one has layers. Yes, there's a love story. Yes, it's a good one. But underneath all that romance is a woman named Aurora who has been carrying things most people never knew she was holding. We're talking about what it means to be Black in white spaces, to be a woman fighting for other women's bodies while the world tries to make decisions about your own, and what happens when the person who hurt you never stopped hurting people until someone finally stood in the way. This episode includes a spoiler discussion and addresses themes of sexual grooming, abortion, and reproductive rights. Please listen with care and skip ahead if you need to. And stay until the end, because March is coming, and we're heading to Harlem, Next up: With Love from Harlem: A Novel of Hazel Scott.
