Time to Lick the Envelope Closed!

Published Date: February 28, 2025
Episode: 3

For our finale episode in this delicious little three course menu in your mailbox, host and producer Sasha DuBose (they/she) reflects on her time teaching and cooking with the girls at the Lower Eastside Girls Club. The members who joined our pilot group of Flavor and Folklore may have learned a bit more about food culture and how to yap about it, but it turns out that Sasha learned a lot about herself, too.

 

To keep up with Sasha and their new group of girls at the LES Girls Club, follow @meaty.gram and @heritage_radio on Instagram. A new season is coming soon!

This episode of Love Letters was brought to you by the LESGC Flavor and Folklore Members Kiyerra Braveboy, Astan Kaba, Symone Carre, Noni Johnson, Rae McGee, and Melissa Gregory. Special shout out to Girls Club Staff Albert Nguyen, Kelly Webb, and Mama Jen (as well as her middle school girls!)

 

P.S. 

What’s a proper love letter without a cheeky postscript? If my high school girls happen to stumble across this, just know you all have a special place in my heart — especially as the first group I taught! To my middle school friends, you’re up next. I’m BEYOND excited to share our stories to the airwaves. Girls Club Forever!

Cheers,

Sasha J. DuBose
