LaKia Williams
Black Feminist Rants (BFR) was created by reproductive justice and contraceptive equity organizer LaKia Williams during the height of social and political unrest in 2020. LaKia, dissatisfied with innocuous online discussions surrounding the pandemic and the murders of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, used her social media to post her own “rants” about the tragedies we were facing. She decided to create a podcast that would allow her to reach a broader audience and speak on the full spectrum of social and political issues that matter to her as an activist – largely, issues pertaining to reproductive freedom and autonomy.
