Have you noticed that there always seems to be a disconnect between African Americans and other people in the Diaspora? Why does it feel like being labeled "African American" is a bad thing? Sufficiently Black explores these questions with "daughter of Africa," Howard University Professor Dr. Amy Yeboah Quarkume. Dr. A explains the importance of language to limit the divide, whether people in the Diaspora are capable of cultural appropriation and the issues with Marvel's Black Panther.

Oreo gang we promise this is the final playback episode before the official rebrand to Sufficiently Black on September 21st! Until then, we are visiting one of our favorite episode where we sat down with Mecca Woods, a professionally trained astrologer, author, host and podcaster to talk all things astrology! Mecca gives us all the details on the traits of the four elements of the zodiac signs, how we attract people who hold the qualities we lack, opposite signs and why we pay attention to our sun, moon and rising placements. Mecca reads our birth charts to discover the problems in our love lives and explains why certain signs like Gemini and Scorpio get so much hate.

It is the last episode before the rebrand! We are taking a look back at one of our most played episodes and a highly requested topic... Colorism. The Oreos deep dive into the definition and history of colorism and discuss how colorism is ingrained in our society with a particular focus in media. The hosts discuss how dark skinned characters are portrayed in some of our favorite content as children until now. Each host gives their personal experience with colorism and the negative effects they have witnessed from the people around them before addressing the audiences' comments and experiences on the topic.

In prepping for our rebrand we are taking a look back to our episode on interracial dating. Amari opens up with some personal news and updates since 2019 before the Oreos discuss their different experiences with dating other races. The conversation takes an emotional turn when a popular OK Cupid survey comes up that sparks the discussion of how Black men and women treat other when it comes to dating.

The So-Called Oreos are prepping for their highly anticipated rebrand and they are revisiting early episodes that really embody the "Oreo" experience. We take a look at the so-called compliment, "you're pretty for a black girl" and discuss the different impact of compliments based on skin color.

It is the last episode before So-Called Oreos takes a hiatus for the summer before our well anticipated rebrand! (Don't worry we will still have episodes for you to listen to during the break.) Before the main topic of discussion, the hosts discuss some problematic celebrities and the real definition of "cancel culture." In honor of Juneteenth, the Oreos give some background on the holiday and discuss how they celebrated (or didn't celebrate) growing up. The Melanin Martha aka Jordan Wimby joins the show to talk about platform that is dedicated to healing generational trauma by reconnecting with our ancestors and history through food. Jordan explains why its important for us to appreciate the food we eat and how to stop the anti-blackness in the food world. She touches on historical points in Netflix's High on the Hog, how our ancestors gained power in cooking and why "soul food" isn't less healthy than food mostly consumed by white people.
