The Conversation Peace Podcast w/Aquila

Guess whose back? It's me, your lovely humble host-Aquila. I'm back with Season 3 of The Conversation Peace Podcast. This season's topics are raw, authentic, and emotional. We need to start talking about the uncomfortable elephants in the room and come from a place of empathy if we are going to survive on this planet together-heal ourselves first, so we can heal each other. The premiere episode In...

We did it again, another one in the books. This season I covered a wide range of topics-some serious (The I's Have It-Insurrection, Impeachment, and Inauguration) and some fun (Black Listen Listen To K-pop?), but regardless of the topic at hand, I try and remain humble and open. During Black History Month, episodes 4 through 7, I tried to highlight black achievement with some names not heard of-Cl...

I address my initial response to the siege on the Capital Building in D.C. on January 6th. I also speak with Marc Neal, a retired SWAT and law enforcement officer about his views on the siege and the breakdown and lack of response of the capital hill officers.

It's been a rough couple of months. I wanted to do a light humored episode filled with some poetry and storytelling.

This is a mini episode in which I follow up with my teen guest from last week; we discuss the effects of social media.

I have a conversation with a youth of today about a wide range of topics.  It has been edited for time, but her perspective and outlook on her young life is in part refreshing, and in some parts heartbreaking-as she is being reflective on social issues such as black lives matter that she finds herself in the midst of. This is part one of our conversation. The music at the end is by the artist...

Everyone has a story to tell, an origin, and my mother is no different. In this episode we discuss how she came to the faith of Islam. It's a pretty interesting one, it even has a witch!!!

In this episode, me and my friend, Cee Cee, use poetry as a means of communication. How we take in words, use them to our advantage or disadvantage, and should really take into consideration what it is we are really trying to say to people.

In this introductory episode, I give a little brief introduction into my experience with being a Black Muslim Woman. What being black has meant to me in my life thus far. Also, I give a little facts into the faith of Islam, and a brief insight into my womanhood, and it ends with an encouraging word for the listener to ponder.
