In this week’s episode of Mood Swings, Jae and Kendra dive into the world of Donna Briggs, a woman who didn’t just reinvent herself, she hit “factory reset” and chose a whole new race.
We unpack the wild ride of transracial identity, from the side-eyes at the family reunion to the “wait, you’re what now?” moments in public.
We explore how society reacts when someone swaps lanes on the racial highway, what it says about self-perception, and whether the world is ready for this plot twist. Spoiler: probably not.
