Episode 8: Racism in the Austen Community

In Episode 8 writer Amanda-Rae Prescott and I talk about Sanditon and the sisterhood. and we take a hard look at racism in the Jane Austen fandom. 

In Chapter 8, Marianne can't understand how Colonel Brandon could possibly be in love with her considering his advanced age of 35. But she's far more worried about Elinor's lack of concern over Edward's nonappearance.
