Another episode about some things I don't like. In this episode, I talk about different enemies of progress and dive deeper into the Toxic Terrence, a problematic character whose presence is pervasive in the black community. Being pro-black at the expense of other black people is not being pro-black - it's being self-serving. Black people who do the nonsense white people do (like dismissing black women) and using their platform to profit from black struggle are two of my pet peeves! I want to spend the rest of 2020 being less annoyed because I've said my piece, and I hope that this episode can give other black women and others some relief as well.
