Hi listeners,

We have foregone our normal content and dedicate this episode to discussing Black Lives Matter, the current surge of the movement and the Bristol (UK) BLM protest on 7th June. This episode deals with racism, white privilege, intersectionality and our host Cassie's personal experience as a black woman. Be prepared for some uncomfortable truths, and keep listening.

The toppling of statues is a new phase of anti-racist action, not the end.
