When something comes out of the blue, how do you react? Do you freeze? Do you panic? Or do you find a way to move forward? Today, we’ve got two stories about being surprised, dumbfounded, blindsided, in completely different ways. This episode was hosted by Amena Brown, author of the new essay collection 'Never Tell A Black Girl How To Black Girl.' Storytellers: Janell Banks develops a fear of driving after a car crash nearly severs her foot. Amena Brown’s grandma takes a liking to Amena’s new husband. Podcast # 985
