ThatBlackBoyJoy is a celebration of the many iterations of Black manhood, primarily explored through our podcast. The show was created in response to the persistent lack of recognition and celebration of the contributions of Black men, particularly queer Black men, within culture and society. From its inception, ThatBlackBoyJoy has sought to recognize, platform, and affirm Black men who are shaping the world through their work, artistry, and community-centered initiatives.
