Summary
Is the current online accountability discourse a productive, meaningful, and proportional response to systemic injustice? Or is it a punitive expression of a carceral mob mentality? In the second part of this special two-part series, I invited three of my colleagues and advanced certification students - Master Coach Brenda Lomeli, Master Coach Brig Johnson, and Clutch Coach Amber Taylor - to have a nuanced discussion about why so many women fear being “canceled,” how online accountability conversations emerged from restorative justice practices, and why it’s so important to unpack any strong reactions you are having to the concept.

| 0:35.2 | All the same guest stars are here. |
| 0:37.0 | We just basically recorded one very long conversation, but we cut it into two episodes because it's just so dense and |
| 0:44.3 | meaty and interesting and I really wanted you guys to be able to digest. So before we |

| 1:37.2 | episode that my students who are black women were afraid of being quote-unquote |
