Are we overlooking one of our ancestors’ wildest dreams? When we consider the brutality forced upon Black bodies, wellness looks a lot less like a luxury and more like progress. How many of our ancestors just wanted to be okay? How many of them just wanted to go a day without waking up in pain? Tonight on Tripp After Dark, we sit with Sal Reedus and Cortland Mullins to discuss what it means to be well.

Cousin Tripp had the opportunity to travel to Accra and Cape Coast, Ghana. As you’ll see during the episode, I’m still overwhelmed. There’s so much to unpack and still so much to learn. I experienced the history, the culture, and the people. It all felt like coming to the reunion of a family I just found out I’m related to. In this episode, I do my best to describe my time there and how it changed me forever.

Cousin Janese Boston swings by to talk about the golden age of the game and why things are so different now.

From writing birthdays in the back of her Bible to cooking for the family on Sundays: Big Mama has always been a record keeper and space maker. It was in her living room, backyard, and kitchen that we learned what we come from, who we are, and everywhere we could go. Tonight, we sit with Ms. Suzan Bradford Kounta to discuss matriarchy and Black women’s history in leadership.
