Episode 132: Big House Wife
Here we come... walkin' down the streeeeeet! Join us for chapters 16-18 of Rita Williams-Garcia's "One Crazy Summer" about three sisters spending time with the Black Panthers in 1968 Oakland. Delphine has words with Hirohito Woods and decides to cook an entire meal for her family (she's 11, y'all). We catch a glimpse of Cecile's mystery kitchen and see her ever-so-slightly softer side. The sisters decide they want a TV set and stage a living room protest – will they actually get one?! Jody and Alison chat about off-roading, Safeway, square eyes, and '90s boom boxes. And, as usual, they provide melodramatic readings and literary analysis.
