Join me, Tanae J., as your host for TJ talk where I spark conversations with different guests on topics relevant to TheCulture that provide insight into the lives of black creatives. They may make you laugh or maybe uncomfortable but hopefully they all make you think. Should you have gathered some gems from us here, don’t be afraid to pass them along and spark your own conversations. You can find new episodes available on Tuesday’s and we also shoot them LIVE on Instagram Tuesday’s at 7pm CST @melaninmic_ And if you haven’t already, LOVE ON SOMEBODY TODAY!
