What happens when a doctoral dissertation transforms into a mixtape that redefines spiritual and cultural paradigms? Join us for the fourth and final season of Life After Leaven, where we unravel a radical ethical spirituality grounded in ethnographic tradition. This isn’t just any dissertation; it’s a multimedia project that challenges conventional wisdom and shapes a new epistemological framework for our post-digital, post-Christian, multi-faith, and non-faith world. Together with my co-host Mish and a roster of special guests, we'll explore the profound impact of this mixtape on the leadership of Black college students, delving into cultural texts, film analysis, and personal narratives that make up this transformative work.
Kickstarting the season with a heartfelt interview, my mom helps set the stage for the autobiographical journey we’re about to embark on. Following this, intimate conversations with my grandmother Leah and Uncle Demi stitch together the familial threads that underpin my work. We’ll dig deep into my love for hip hop and womanism with Dr. Daniel White Hodge, host of Profane Faith, and reconnect with Robert and Tamara for a nostalgic "Where’s the Lie" reunion. As we prepare to launch the mixtape in August, expect episodes that meticulously break down its components and cultural significance. Buckle up for a season that promises to be both intellectually stimulating and emotionally resonant. Let’s get it!
