An Angry Black Woman

You can smile, say all the right things, and still be downright nasty. So what's the difference between being nice and being kind? From Mary and Martha to the Golden Rule, we're talking judgment, accountability, boundaries, and knowing when to walk away without tearing somebody down. Because sometimes you can wish somebody well—and still be sick of their crappity crap! 🎙️

Two brothers. One dead. One critically injured. And one question: How do brothers get here? From Cain and Abel to East of Eden and a tragedy here in Houston, I’m asking what happens between anger and the irreversible—and whether “Am I my brother’s keeper?” is a question we should ask while everybody is still alive. Thou mayest. You have a choice.

There are five active Black Catholic bishops in the United States—but only two are African American. Two. That one fact sent Phae down a 500-year rabbit hole asking one very simple question: Why? Pull up a chair. Let’s talk.

September 25 carries two men I loved. My daddy died on September 25, 1990. Thirty-five years later, my son-in-law died on the same date at just 38 years old. This episode is about love, loss, faith, and learning that grief and trusting God can occupy the same space. Sometimes the testimony isn't that everything worked out. Sometimes the walk itself is the testimony.

One little word—“unalive”—sent me twelve exits past the original question. 😂 What started as curiosity about a social-media euphemism turned into Frankenstein, childhood “why” questions, intellectual play, critical thinking, and why some of us never stop wondering. Sometimes the question has already been answered. Sometimes I just want to know what happens if we keep going. Welcome to the way my...

Doing my hair has never been an activity. It’s a project. 😂 From hot combs and beauty-shop dryers to natural hair, sew-ins and wash week, I’m looking back at a lifetime of Black hair—and why, after all these years, my hair still runs the meeting.

What started with a text from my daughter about “Lake America” sent me down a research rabbit hole. From renaming bodies of water to education, the cost of living, public health, immigration and war, I found myself asking one simple question: With everything happening in our country and our world, what are we doing? This isn’t about politics. It’s about priorities—and trying to understand them.

What happens when Black women are reduced to stereotypes—and then criticized for how we respond? In this In Tribeca with ABW Special Edition, Phae takes on Laura Loomer, the “angry Black woman” trope, and who gets to define our voices. We’re not angry. We’re a masterpiece. But masterpieces can get pissed off too

I’ve been watching Perry Mason since I was a little girl—and after 271 episodes, I have questions. From race and representation to Della Street’s job, Perry’s money, fashion, cars, advertising, and all that smoking, I’m looking beyond the murder mystery at the world around the story. Because sometimes what’s missing from the picture tells you more than what’s actually on the screen.

This wasn’t the plan. In this first episode of In Tribeca with ABW, I’m talking about what happens when life doesn’t look like the plan—and what I’ve learned about the no’s, the detours, the trying, and giving myself a little grace along the way. Tribeca isn’t just a place. It’s a state of mind. We’re not angry. We’re a masterpiece.
