Umoja: A Comforting Moment for Feeling Connected

listen now!

This Comforting Moment marks the first day of Kwanzaa — Umoja, the principle of Unity.

In this gentle gathering in the Umoja Cafe in YAIT Town, we pause to remember that we were never meant to carry life alone.

YAIT Town is a living sanctuary built through story, reflection, and shared breath — a place you can return to for rest, truth, and connection.

Alongside Comforting Moments like this one, You Ain’t Imagining This! offers:

• Immersive and Sensory Stories that invite you into Black spaces, memories, and moments.

• Believe Black People episodes that name and challenge racism and the experience of living Black in predominantly white spaces.

• Espresso Talks that explore everyday Black life with care and clarity.

You’re also invited to deepen this work through the YAIT newsletter, where reflections, rituals, and community offerings continue beyond the podcast.

YAIT Town is always open — and the porch light is always on.
