In this episode, we’re talking with Sophie Williams, AKA OfficialMillennialBlack on Insta, about her upcoming book, not centering whiteness, and the love triangle between fatphobia, racism, and misogyny.

Call to Action: Read “What, to Black Lives, is the 4th of July?” by Antwan Herron. Read, reflect, and share this piece over this weekend — the 4th. Remember that when we call July 4th “Independence Day,” who that Independence included. 

“This Fourth of July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn. To drag a man in fetters into the grand illuminated temple of liberty, and call upon him to join you in joyous anthems [is] inhuman mockery and sacrilegious irony.” - Frederick Douglass
