This episode of Tranos & the Lived Experience is a racism double-header. Beginning with the loud and annoying mourning period for Elizabeth II and its interplay with centuries of colonialism and genocide. Specifically because of the reactions people of color faced when celebrating too much or not being sad enough. Then Kamryn zooms in on a personal experience where a colleague demonstrated less pointed racism that left a bad taste in her mouth. In both of these cases, white liberals bare their ignorance about racial politics in different ways, intentional and unintentional, to harm people of color.

This episode’s strain is Sugarplum Sunset

This episode was musically inspired by “Who Wants To Live Forever?” by Queen
