In this podcast episode, we dive into the issue of cultural credit and explore how some individuals—particularly the white women mentioned in this episode—are crashing out about cashing in on cultural capital they haven’t earned. Through a detailed case study, we examine the ways in which overstepping boundaries can harm marginalized voices, especially women of color. We’ll unpack the dynamics of exploitation, allyship, and accountability, challenging the norms of who gets to speak for whom and why true solidarity means stepping back, not stepping over.
