The TRUST BLACK WOMEN TOUR is still going strong and today we are talking to Dr. Monique Liston from Ubuntu Research and Evaluation. We start off by asking Dr. Mo, "What does freedom look like to you?" (3:25) and "How do black people build their black imagination?" (6:35). We hear about her journey and “black ass mamas" (12:25), why she returned back to Milwaukee after going to Howard University (YOU KNOW!), her work in evaluation (22:30), her thoughts on wealth and her role as an entrepreneur (29:28), race and dignity in the workplace (33:50), reflections on being a Black woman today professionally (39:20), how to protect your “voice” and avoid burning out (46:40).
