BY AALLYAH WRIGHT | Ahead of Beyoncé’s release of Cowboy Carter, we spoke to Black women and girls making waves in rodeo.
When Beyoncé announced the ode to her country and Southern roots, it sent some fans and naysayers into a social media frenzy.

The fight to enshrine gender equality in the U.S. Constitution is more urgent than ever. Nobody knows this better than Susan Frietsche—who recently secured an incredible victory for women in the state of Pennsylvania in terms of then power of the Equal Rights Amendment as it relates to reproductive freedom. In this episode, we delve into how Susan’s work sets an important precedent for protecting women’s rights—and how it relates to the fight to secure the federal ERA in the Constitution.
