Listen this week as I discuss how my complexion, hair and skin effected me in my younger age and these insecurities followed me to adulthood and through relationships.

• Merriam-Webster defines colorism as prejudice or discrimination, especially within a racial or ethnic group favoring people with lighter skin over those with darker skin.

We also discuss my Little White Lady and how 5 year old Vic wanted to be white like her.

While I joke and play far too much my momma is black, blackly black black, don't let the light skin fool you

***This is not an episode to listen to with the kids.

Listen this week as I finish up my conversation with JD and he gets me to tell too much of my business using music. And encourages me to do rap songs as poetry. Get ready to clutch your pearls and laugh your ass off.

• PXssy by Latto is gold when done in spoken word.
• • The word is used a lot in the clip.

We also get into lack of protection for female rappers, the lack students in the bedroom and giving your partner or potential partner time and space to figure themselves out.

Knowing your person is your person but they need time to heal and do them.

• How hard it is know what you know and having patience
• • It's either gonna be a lesson and a dumb bitch story for We Talk Back or it's gonna be the greatest love story.

I also do recap of my week filled with feeling lonely and doing aerobatic yoga.

If ya think ya lonely now, lol ya girl was getting lonely and needed a hug and a familiar face and non- intimate touch. Hugs are a love language B!

Artist: Jodeci

Song: If you think your lonely now
