Original Show Notes
Welcome to episode 74 of Shea Butter FC, a podcast by, for, and about Black women in soccer. In this episode, we welcome members of Black Support Groups across NWSL and MLS, to have an unfiltered discussion on the ups and downs of being a Black supporter in a predominately white USA soccer space. This is the launch of our programming, Shea Butter Family Affair, which explores the intersection of the Black community and supporter culture across soccer.
With the help of Jermaine from Miami’s Black Herons, we chop it up with members of Washington DC’s Rose Room Collective (Doug and Riss), Chicago’s Black Fires (Jake and Phil), and members of the American Outlaws (Donald and Eboni) on the importance of community building and connection, to help correct equity and inclusion missteps within the supporter community, and look for paths forwards to continue to bring Black people and other people of color to this beautiful game.
Come vibe with our first of many roundtable discussions and take a seat at the Spades Table!
Much love and appreciation to KC Nevijay for letting us use some of his beats and mixes within this episode and many of our episodes. His beat appears at the intro piece at the beginning of the episode. Peep his other work on his YouTube Channel.
Also, much love and gratitude goes to D.O.P.E Chick Beats for allowing us to use some of her beats within this episode and several of our episodes.
