"Whenever fear comes up, that means I have to do it anyway - conquer it." -Kristen Addis

Episode 5 is an audio performance by Livy Liv, speaking on her written piece, '1926'.  Which focuses on a hypothetical experience of a male of color, responding to his first encounter with the "paper-bag test".  She sets the scene in 1926, in New Orleans. She expands into his internal struggle dealing with an unjust death as a young adult.

There's history to learn here, as well as some picture painting of how colorism can benefit some, and what the consequences might look like for others. 

Join her in this vulnerable space of creativity.
