The Double Bind: Intelligence and Ignorance in the Black Community

This week on Them People, we're gettin' into somethin' real: the double-edged sword of bein' a free spirit and, sometimes, too smart. We're talkin' the highs of livin' your truth, wild and untamed, but also the lows of how that impacts us, especially in the Black community. Are we doin' too much on social media? Is our "extra-ness" actually holdin' us back? And are we accidentally alienating folks in our own communities just because we see things different? We're unpackin' it all – the good, the bad, and the complicated – on this week's episode.
