Black Joy is found in many places. One of my favorite "Black Joy" activities comes from storytelling and skilled storytellers.
Storytellers have always held important roles in Black communities--from Africa to Detroit. Storytelling connects us with our roots in Africa where the oral tradition was used to remember family history, acknowledge special events, and teach societal norms. This oral tradition allowed storytellers to adapt the story, message, and performance to the audience for maximum impact and enjoyment.
The Espresso Talk Today team is pleased to have Master Storyteller, Mitch Capel, aka Gran'daddy Junebug, to the show to discuss the importance of storytelling.
Gran'daddy Junebug will also present some of his most popular stories and poems. You don't want to miss this uncommon and joyful episode!
