Disclaimer: I don't personally know anyone I talked about in this episode. I made conclusions based on the information they've given me and my own personal experiences. In this episode, I want to discuss my concerns that many conversations about gender and race through black content is lack nuance and depth, and in doing so, they do a disservice to those with less privilege whose voices aren't being heard. 
There's a lot of content I've watched - and will not watch - because I'm ready to see something new. In this episode, I talk about some of the problems I've been having with mainstream black content. I'm wondering if there's any content that's intended for black women and interested in elevating them.
I mentioned that the author of Little Fires Everywhere Celeste Ng (pronounced uh-ng) pictured Mia Warren as a black character (Why didn't she imagine the character as an Asian woman?).
