with special guests Kimberly Helm and Nikki Beasley
Kimberly Helm is the Ujamaanomics Cultural Financial Literacy instructor at Ujamaa Place. Nikki Beasley is the Housing / Policy Director at YWCA St. Paul.
This episode centers around Day 2 of the Ujamaanomics Civil Rights Experience in Selma, Alabama, where Ujamaa men participated in The Middle Passage and Willie Lynching Training of a Slave experience, under the leadership of Ms. Afriye Wekandodis founder of “By The River Center for Humanity.” Kimberly and Nikki talk about bearing witness to the impact of experiencing the pain of our ancestors, and how it impacted Ujamaa men and themselves as Black women. "Ujamaanomics will continue to use experiential learning to teach our men and their children how to navigate an economic system built on the brutal institution of chattel slavery that lasted over 400 years, as was promised in the Willie Lynch letter", said "A Black Man's Sketch" producer Monique Linder. We thank our beloved community for joining us along this journey of discovery of the love, strength and determination that is passed on to us through our ancestors. We honor the ancestors for never losing hope in the struggle for freedom.
