Journalist and novelist Danyel Smith told Felicia Pride's podcast 'It's Good Over Here' that "there is no safe space for an ambitious Black woman," TheGrio reports. Smith said ambitious Black women can face resentment for continuing to pursue their goals as they get older. Pride's platform HONEY CHILE shared the clip on Instagram.
