Intro

On this week’s episode, Erica explains how a Siberian ice maiden keeps COVID, earthquakes, and Hillary Clinton away and Mookie educates Erica about the bold Claudette Colvin who took a stand by sitting down before Rosa Parks.

She’s COLD!

A town in Siberia is COVID-free and they are thanking a 2,400 year-old mummy for that protection and for protecting the town against natural disasters, war, and even blame the mummy for Hillary Clinton’s failed presidential campaign in 2016! Erica fills you in on what HC did to cause the wrath of a tired, cold mummy to rain down on her.

Be a Claudette

You’ve heard of Rosa Parks but teenager Claudette Colvin did it first. At just 15 years old, Claudette was on a bus in Birmingham, Alabama when the driver told her to move. She refused. After being removed from the bus, the gutsy teen was jailed. Mookie describes the impact she had on the Civil Rights Movement.
