Amanda Edwards: I always tell people, 'Don't let other people's limitations become your own.' So, just because someone else might have a limited imagination, doesn't mean that yours has to be.

Every debate that we have, is typically, about how much access to whiteness, we either do or do not have, and how much we give it to others or don't... Most of our culture is centered around how much we can make our peoplehood look like them.

Caller: I was in a meeting with CDC officials. A black doctor who works for the CDC said those DNA testing sites are not governed by any HIPAA laws, rules, or regulations. So, if you submit any swabs or any DNA to those sites, they can in turn sell it to a database.
Special guest, Michelle Hope: Michelle's motto: Proper planning prevents piss-poor performances. Caller's response to Karen using Oil of Oregano:

That is huge! The value of being your authentic self at the office:
Drew: There is value to that for me in my spirit. I tried to play the game. Assimilation is exhausting. It leaves absolutely no energy, no time for creativity and innovation. The 1619 Project, a special issue of The New York Times Magazine, marks the 400th anniversary of the arrival of the first enslaved Africans to Jamestown, Virginia with a series of essays, images, stories, and poems that challenge readers to reframe their understanding of U.S. history by considering 1619 as the start of this nation's story.
