This episode is a bit different. It is not research heavy by any means, unless you consider self reflection research (it kinda is). I step into a place of vulnerability that allows me to explore the binaries of gender, race, religion, capitalism and even love as it relates to my life.  I am stepping out of society's imagination and into my own by living the life that I want and loving myself more.

Guided by the minds of James Baldwin and Nikki Giovanni, here is the source for the audio clippings you hear throughout the episode. The ending remarks by Baldwin are from an unknown source.
