Mother’s Day Playlist

Posted onMay 12, 2018May 11, 2020AuthorRonda Lee

Mother’s Day was second only to Christmas in my household. My maternal grandmother was orphaned as a child, so Mother’s Day was like a mini family reunion. Birthday parties were only cousins because after they showed up who had room to invite friends. I recall Read More …

Postpartum Depression & Women of Color

Posted onMarch 7, 2018August 28, 2018AuthorRonda Lee

I remember hearing women say things like “maybe having a baby will change her and make her settle down and be more responsible.” Before a child is born, mothers-to-be are already made to feel inadequate. Parenting does not come with a handbook and even if Read More …

Hillary Stop It!

Posted onSeptember 13, 2017September 4, 2018AuthorRonda Lee

Grace Jones TIFF Documentary

Ladies Behind Hip Hop Labels

Posted onSeptember 5, 2017September 4, 2018AuthorRonda Lee
