#285 Sheryl’s Friend Is Racist

Queen & J. are two womanist race nerds talking liberation, politics, and pop-culture over tea. Drink up!

On this episode… Explaining racism to white people proves to be a thankless fvcking job as Piers Morgan and Sharon Osborne show their whole asses on live TV. Are Black activists commodifying Black death for clout? Samaria Rice reacts to Tamika Mallory at the Grammy’s. And finally, biracial identity and who gets to say “I’m Black.”

This week’s hot list: Decentralized activism, clout chasing weirdos, Hollywood reenactments of the Black Lives Matter movement (cringe), The Talk, Elaine Welteroth, Sheryl Underwood, a rockette, and that lil unbothered dog, weatherman Alex Beresford, Meghan Markle, white passing biracial identity and Blackness, language and mad other ish
