Katie Hopkins deservedly gets the #PettySideEye for her Dear Black People rant. #SideEyeOfTheWeek goes to the head-spinning cries of reverse racism in response to @Jamelia's Toy segment. For the #Afrobates we ask 'When will people stop playing the Reverse Racism card?'. This week's #BlackTwitterMoment gave us all the feels when we saw a still from @MichaelaCoel's new play Been So Long.Pens out, to submit a Petty side-eye send us a voice note (1 minute or less) to +447387840460 or email them to [email protected]

This week on the AWARD-WINNING podcast the ladies are joined by award-winning blogger @TheSlumflower. #MelaninMagic goes to the @imtiredproject by @Paulaakpan and @Harrietevs for shining a light on the lasting impact of microaggressions.This week's #ClashoftheClapbacks gets heated when we try to defend Being Exclusive vs. Being Inclusive. #PettySideEye deservedly highlighted the complete disaster of #Fyrefestival and all the fools who wasted their money. #SideEyeoftheWeek goes to Shea Moisture's tone deaf advert and the exclusion of black women. For #Afrobates we ask 'Would it be a problem for traditionally ‘Black’ brands to have an all white advert?' Finally, our #BlackTwitterMoment was #DearWhitePeople which is killing it on Netflix as a TV series.
