In today's episode, I’d like to dive into the world of TikTok and its obsession with beauty, changing your looks, and trying to fit within very tight or unattainable beauty standards. Looksmaxxing, plastic surgery, unrealistic TikTok beauty filters, etc. Along with all the trends that are seemingly endless in pointing out even the smallest detail of someone’s body or face to create new insecurities that people may have never even thought about before. 

In today's episode we will be talking about the history and modern instances of the exploitation of the black community by society. This also encompasses other communities as well but in today's episode the black community is what’s mainly highlighted.

Today we talk about how public interviews can sometimes be problematic and toxic and in what ways certain things can make these types of videos this way. Maybe even in some ways we gloss over or don’t even really think about.

In today's episode, we’ll be talking about the rapper Blueface and his on and off girlfriend and also rapper and reality tv show personality Chrisean Rock. How their relationship is toxic and how their situation has issues with how they treat one another within their own relationship.
