black girl squee!

Hey, yall. I don't know what episode number we're on but... your hosts, Inda and Didi are back from a long hiatus to talk about a small feature film called Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.  We get into the many themes explored in the movie and why we (spoiler) loved it. We also start a Tenoch Huerta Mejia fan club of two. Call us, Tenoch!
