About this episode
In this episode, Tiffany discusses the connections between Usher's halftime show, Beyonce's music release, and Fani Willis' courtroom presence as reflections of Black culture.
Hey ya’ll hey! Thanks for tuning into Episode 103 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"A Fan of Fani.” What do Usher Raymond’s half-time show have in common with Beyonce’s recent music release and DA Fani Willis’ time on the stand? In this episode I want to share with you my ideas about how these three events in Black culture are a model for what more of us need to be doing. Did you catch all of the symbolism in Usher’s performance? How do you feel about the Queen’s country music? Did you argue with people about whether or not Willis should have dated someone with whom she is working? Don’t worry, let’s unpack these ideas together. I’d love to hear what you think about this week’s episode. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around Black history, spirituality, or culture, please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at drtip@tellemtiptoldyou.com.
