Jason Lee stopped by the stand to talk Black media, entrepreneurship, and his thoughts on the continued impact of Wendy Williams. Amara La Negra reflected on the end of Love & Hip Hop: Miami, opened up about motherhood, and shared how speaking on colorism and Afro-Latina identity has shaped her platform and purpose.
Leah also caught up with DC favorite Lonnie B, who spoke about his move into radio with Radio One, making an impact on the airwaves, and what’s next for his growing stage play tour. And ballroom trailblazer Byrell the Great shared why it’s important to honor ballroom culture’s roots, the power of LGBTQ+ visibility, and what mainstream recognition means for the community.
