Description

Welcome to Rich Little Reads — a new series for readers and wannabe readers.

Have you read From Legacy to Liability? This week, Kim sits down with activist, author, and cultural critic Marley Dias to unpack what power really costs when you’re a Black woman navigating systems not built for you — a conversation sparked by her essay on her Substack, Third Space.

She’s challenging the way we think about visibility, access, and “making it.” Because when success looks like being the symbol, the cover star, or the first in the room — what happens to the rest of us?

Marley unpacks the pressure of Black excellence and why presence without power is just performance. She breaks down how wealth, status, and visibility can inspire — but just as easily distract us from the harder question: what really changed?

So… think you’ll read it?
