What's Love Got to Do With It: The World Hates Blacks but...

...we are not allowed to hate back. Does whiteness make room for love? Does it have the capacity to do so? I think Aileen Wuornos may have been onto something... This episode is dedicated to the legacies of Jamil Al-Amin and Alice Wong.

Desirability Part 2: Disobeying white Eurocentric Beauty Standards

...And the beauty of not falling in line. Ya'll asked, we complied: the desirability episode part 2! A special ask: if you liked what you heard and want this fully indie listener supported, currently pay-wall free, ad-free g-thang to continue, please consider becoming a patron: https://www.patreon.com/ihartericka or via Venmo: @Ericka-Hart, Paypal: ericka@ihartericka.com.

The Episode: Conventionally Attractive: What else does the convention govern beside attraction? Conventionally attractive is just a euphemism for white eurocentric beauty ideals that white people themselves both control and regularly fail (and when they fail it, they shift the goalpost ever in their favor) -GOP-1s/GLP-1s: A global "rightward" conservative drift coinciding with a boon in the weight loss drug industry, a billion dollar social media attention economy focused mostly on how people look and a concurrent decline in advocacy for Congo, Sudan, Haiti and the ongoing genocidal violence against Black people in this country may be revealing an uglier truth about white supremacy than once thought before.
