Redefining "Ride or Die" in Love: From Loyalty to Liberation with Shanita Hubbard (Rewind)

The Black Girl Bravado

Ever worn the "ride or die" label in your relationship? You're not alone. In this episode, we're joined by Shanita Hubbard, author of "Ride or Die: A Feminist Manifesto For The Well-Being of Black Women," to dissect this common trope in Black romantic relationships.

In this episode we discuss:

• The Ride or Die archetype— where it started and how it’s been woven into Black culture
• How to decipher between being supportive vs self-sacrificing
• What our role is in actively dismantling the ride-or-die stereotype
• And much more!
