Ozempic and other weight loss drugs have opened up a new conversation about our nation’s obsession with thinness. This episode from 2022 delves into our nation’s refusal to acknowledge that the ideal, at its core, is racist. How do we get beyond the belief that bigger Black bodies are a problem? And instead, allow ourselves, no matter what size, to take up space?

Sabrina Strings, Ph.D., scholar and author of Fearing the Black Body: The Racial Origins of Fat Phobia.
Carvell Wallace, author and memoirist.
Mozell Ward, trainer at Radically Fit.
