Negra Como Soy: Why Antoinette Lee Toscano thinks CHRIS ROCK should know better: Politics of Hair.

All the emotion comes into play today as Doni and Dr. Rhonda chat with adventure sports writer Antoinette Lee Toscano about Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the Oscars and cultural assumptions surrounding black women’s hair.

Microaggressions, childhood traumas and more affect us more than we know, and our hair is the focus of that in today’s episode. Definitely a must-listen!

There’s the story of who we are as individuals, what we know and walk with, and the story other people create in their minds about who you are. We’re here to set the story straight…

Negra, como soy: I’m Afro-Latina is a show that explores the intricacies and flavors of the AfroLatin experience throughout the Spanish colonized world. We understand that the direct translation is “black like me,” in the feminine. Again, often life is about interpretation, and we’re here to help expand those interpretations, in this corner of life at least.

Join Doni Aldine and Rhonda Coleman as they celebrate foods, dance, clothing, language, and customs of their own cultures and others from the diaspora.
