Unraveling -Isms episodes

  • 3 - Forgive and Forget?
    In this episode, co-hosts Amena Chaudhry and Kay Coughlin dig into the juicy topic of whether you really have to forgive and forget. What if it's a concept used by oppressive systems to control you? Why do we expect the person with less power in the relationship to do all the hard work of forgiving? And why do we pretend that forgetting will allow the person who did the harm to get rid of their guilt?
