For our second episode, Wes Jackson sat down with Sophia Chang live, onstage at BRIC House in Downtown Brooklyn as part of BRIC’s Hip-Hop Weekend in February. Sophia is a public speaker, mentor, screenwriter, and author of “The Baddest Bitch in the Room: A Memoir”. Sophia calls herself a “matriarchitect”. Over the course of her career in the music business, she managed Ol’ Dirty Bastard, RZA, GZA, D’Angelo, Raphael Saadiq, Q Tip, and A Tribe Called Quest. Together, she and Wes discussed mentorship, aging, and the physical and spiritual practice of Kung Fu. • Back to Reading Credits is hosted by Wes Jackson and produced by Khyriel Palmer, Emily Boghossian, Raynita Vaughn, Chris Torres, Gabrielle Davenport, and Antoine Hardy, with help from Michael Carroll, Morgan Smith, Leslie Hayes, Jose Astorga, Antonio Rosario, KerriAnn Eng, Raeshon Roberson, Morgan Hammel, Wayne Hassell, Kevin Tinsley, Naim Vann, Harris Awan, Elyse Rodriguez Aleman, Charlie Hoxie, and Kuye Youngblood.
