We Still Don’t Know How to Treat Our Legends

View descriptionShare
 

On the 100th episode of The Latest with Loren LoRosa, Loren reflects on a weekend back home in Delaware, spending quality time with her mother and grandmother and celebrating Black-owned businesses. Then she gets into the power of Black storytelling—from Tyler Perry continuing to connect generations to A Different World finding a new audience decades later.

But after Jasmine Guy addressed the criticism surrounding her appearance and aging, Loren has a bigger question: Why do we celebrate our legends while also tearing them down? She gets candid about ageism, the way Black women are treated in entertainment, and why some people—and their legacies—deserve a little more protection and appreciation while they’re still here.
