  • Black August: Revolutionary Love and Resistance
    Aug 26 2025
    Welcome back to class! In this powerful episode of Teach the Babies, Dr. David J. Johns teaches a transformative lesson about Black August—a month of revolutionary love, principled resistance, and the long arc of our freedom struggle.

    From the prison walls where George Jackson was politicized and assassinated in 1971, to the contemporary attacks on Black mayors like Muriel Bowser and Karen Bass in 2025, Dr. Johns connects the dots between historical resistance and today's freedom fights. This isn't just Black history - it's Black present.

  • Joyful Survival: How Marsha P. Johnson Taught Us to Turn the Volume Up On Ourselves
    Aug 12 2025
    Today we're diving deep into a conversation that has been decades in the making. You know, sometimes the universe brings people together at precisely the right moment, and today feels like one of those moments. I'm here with Tourmaline. An Artivist, an activist, a filmmaker, and now the author of what I can only describe as a groundbreaking biography, Marsha, the Joy and Defiance of Marsha P. Johnson.

    Tourmaline reminds us that Marsha P. Johnson didn't wait for permission to exist—and neither should we. If you've ever wondered what real Pride looks like beyond corporate rainbow flags—start by pressing play.
