NOTE: This week's episode may not be easy to listen to, and it may make people uncomfortable. But it's important. If we want to unpack our misogyny, we must also unpack our racism. Please listen with an open mind and heart.
Recently, a creator called the White Woman Whisperer made a video about how white women are often the "nice guys" of women. While this may be hard to hear, in the episode, we break down why it's quite accurate.
Our guest this week is Jamila Bradley, an incredible creator, activist, and proud person of color who was criticized after posting a video about the Met Gala. And these attacks weren't coming just from strangers. They were coming from the very women who called themselves allies. These white women were happy to engage and support Jamila's feminist content. But the second Jamila brought race into the conversation, these "allies" became adversaries. A feeling all too familiar for Jamila and other people of color.
