This week Carla and Joy complete their two-part exploration on the politics of desirability. The conversation exposes how beauty politics presents itself in everything from fascism and minimalism to the school to prison pipeline to the healthcare industry, and beyond. As always, the show is closed with a solution-oriented look at how we can begin dismantling this very narrow and restrictive standard of beauty.
