We discuss the societal climates of non-masked Northerners versus the masked norm elsewhere, in Panama specifically, hygiene and cleaning habits and Janvieve's experiences traveling on the continent of Africa and "tamales of dirt." --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/support

EP. 18: "Vaxed, Waxed & Unmasked:" On COVID, Cleanliness and our preference on the Company of Women

We chat about May being "mes de la Etnia Negra" in Panama (and also in Colombia and Venezuela). We know, we know... Black is not an ethnicity, yet the month has been misnomered and we can hold multiple truths at once... the importance of these months AND the fact that nonBlack folks in Latin America WILL show up in Blackface during these "celebratory" Black history and futures months. We share our real-life, fear-inducing antiblack experiences in Guatemala, Panama and others.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/support

EP. 17: "YOU'VE BEEN ANTI-BLACKED" - Black History Months in Latin America

We talk about communal economic structures, hoe sh*t as praxis as Evelyn describes her mother being a seamstress and her most loyal and easy to work with customer base being sex workers. Dash is left gagged and speechless as Janvieve and Evelyn describe the changes their bodies went through before and after pregnancy and birthing. And we all agree, at no point would we ever miss a meal. Anxiety, depression or not.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/support

EP. 13: International (Black) Women´s Day

It's been a long time and we are back with a long, juicy episode talking about folks with all the pretty words with little skill to back it up, the cult of celebrity among Black liberation, entitlement, gratitude, reciprocity, focusing on outcomes not processes, and sitting your rass home and not traveling to Tulum.

EP. 12: MFERS GOT US TIYAD!!!!: Collective Work Traitors, White Savior-Terrorists, & Candle-Blowing Power Play Harm-doers

There's a difference between "tiene de Negro" (having African/Black ancestry) vs. actually BEING NEGRO (being Black). The entry into Blackness is porous while whiteness guards with an iron fist. We undress the Black women cosplayers, have specific questions for white women "of color"???? call in enabling white-centering academia and establishments, identify Mrs. Clause's long lost twin, and how we will now be checking white on all  of our documents and forms.

EP. 11: "Who Chose these white people for Black People Things?" Unmasking AfauxLatines and the Systems that allow their fraud to flourish

  "My identity is tied into my racial component significantly more than my ethnic one like I feel more detached from my ethnic self than I do from my racial self. " - Evelyn Alvarez In this episode, Evelyn and Dash chat about how we ground ourselves in our Blackness more than anything else. That Blackness is diasporic, it is global and it is real. We are Black despite Latinidad, which we all agree, is and continues to be a hegemonic white-centering subordination and assimilation project hellbent on a flat beige identity. And we've made it very clear, we are not beige, nor morena...somos NEGRAS.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/support

EP. 8: De-tangling the "Magic P*ssy Chicks"

"Ain't-Shit" Bro Code, Performative Oppression, Power in Relationships, and the Usual Anti-Black Latinos.  "Issa shoulda had a Latina friend" goofball analysis, people who are not "of the people" speaking for the people and maligning the same people they perform activism for, “Baby mothers" as the best organizers, men trapping women with babies and other reproductive realities in Latin America, including the lack of information and the case of a 12-year-old taking headache medicine (panadol) to stop a pregnancy, and folks feigning struggle for an audience.   We air out a Panamanian journalist that used her platform to malign a fellow Black woman and offer her up to be disparaged on her social media platforms, a panel of non-Latinos giving an analysis of Latin American politics and life, men not holding other men accountable through "ain't shit" bro code, mushroom babies, "air semen," power in relationships, generational differences in a culture of oversharing, and the way a 7-year-old and a duck taught us how unwitting impact can spread, simply by being ourselves and more.   The topic list is long but all fuckery is surprisingly connected. Who knew? We sure did. Take a walk with us.  P.S. The filmmaker mentioned is Nikyatu Jusu, her film "Suicide by Sunlight" is streaming here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRR-0IcKLd8  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/support

EP. 7: "Why Are You at the Club with a 2-week-old at Home??"

What skills are we leaning into, what joy are we finding, and what traditions are we passing on to our children during this time of social isolation? What do we lose or gain living and assimilating in the U.S. and away from our families and spouses in Latin America? And what spiritual practices are keeping our peace during this time?  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/support

We are dragging out the dysfunction and revealing our grievances for generational transformation.  Join us in dragging: projectile trauma, scapegoating Dominican anti-blackness, the incessant habit of calling Black hair "rizos" & curls, beating children, and what is up with Janvieve's affinity for cow lung?   --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cana-negra/support
